I Want.......

I want a tractor. That was Brandon's declaration to me as he sat watching Sesame Street. I'd love a tractor too I told him, if it could fit in our backyard. Little did I know that "I want..." would be said over and over and over again all day. I heard it in different volumes. I heard it with different emphasis. I think that was all I heard today. By the end of the day"I want..."  had become just as growled upon as a swear word in my world.

In retrospect I think I may have been an "I want.." culprit today. I remember saying to the boys just before we ran out the door, "I want to get moving". "I want you to go to the toilet" I want you to put some pants on". So off we went to go to Brandon's Sports Coaching. No stroller again for Bailey today. I think I must have forgotten my adventures without a stroller yesterday. Well I did remember eventually. Bailey just wants to play with all the sports equipment and the kids running around. He's just not quite old enough yet. Brandon played hockey today. He also jumped and hopped and ran through witches hats and then played with the big parachute and a whole heap of balls. A heap of fun.

Ventured in to the shops to get our presents off  layby for daddy. It's his birthday tomorrow and he is very sick. I learnt my lesson from 2 weeks ago when we went in to layby a present for daddy's birthday, not to tell Brandon it's a surprise. Because he then comes home and tells daddy what we bought for his birthday. No Surprise there!

Brandon and I hung out together as Bailey slept. I had just bought a kids baking kit and some Bee silicone moulds at the shops for Brandon. So we baked again. We found a recipe for cupcakes in our kids cookbook called " I Want To Be A Chef. Baking". Great book for the theme of the day. Quite fitting. Our cupcakes still remain un-iced as we ran out of time this afternoon, and they were also getting gobbled up pretty quick.

The 2 boys and daddy went to the shops altogether while I went off to work. Again it's so very late and I can hardly keep my eyes open. So goodnight I say. "I want.. ... to go to sleep!.
