Sleep! Sweet, beautiful sleep! (and other not so fun things)

Last night M slept through the night. It was wonderful! I put him to bed at 7pm and he didn't even stir until about 5:30-6ish this morning. I really can't complain because lately he has only been waking up once in the night to eat so it hasn't been bad. Hopefully, this new sleep pattern will stick. Now...if I could just figure out how to get the other 2 kids to go to bed earlier.

On a very different note, I ventured out today with H and K. We went to Walmart to buy formula for M and look around at everything else in the store. Well, H decided to teach K a new "game" called "Grab It." Anytime I got close to something they would yell "Grab It!" and try to pull it off the shelf. It made steering very difficult and me very angry. Then, at one point during our excursion, we were walking along and I had to stop abruptly so as not to crash carts with an older lady. Well, stopping abruptly and flip flops don't quite go together and I nearly fell to the ground trying to stop. I actually screamed which scared the other lady and embarrassed the heck out of me. Then, as if the trip hadn't been stressful enough, we made our way up to the check out. I decided to do the self check out and as I started scanning items I realized that H had opened one of the cans of formula and had lost the lid. Nice. At the same time, K was trying to help me and started pushing buttons on the scanner pad thing. Apparently, he thought we were buying yellow onions. So after I fixed the scanner thing I reached in for the pizza we were buying and saw that K had ripped the plastic open and was eating the cheese off it! Argh. I vowed that I would never take both of them shopping together again. Of course, I say that pretty much every time I go shopping with both of them and invariably I take them both the next time I go. I think I am a glutton for punishment. Well, that or a mom.
