Frogs, and snails, and puppy dog tails...(day 36)

10 reasons I need my toddler to go to bed before the sun sets:

1. He wakes up at walk of shame time the break of dawn ~ I know what you're thinking, well just put him to bed a little later and he'll sleep a little later ~ tried that, but thanks Captain Obvious.
2. He's aerobic ~ There's NEVER ever any sitting still, rather there is running, climbing, scaling, running, jumping, bouncing, running all interspersed with maniacal laughter
3. He won't watch man-made babysitter T.V. ever ~ Unless it's Elmo (and even then for only 10 minutes) and one sleep deprived person can only handle so much Elmo ~ aka Melmo
4. He's discovered the power of the word NO ~ used to be he would just shake his head politely when he didn't want something, now he shouts NOOOOOOOOO
5. He is often tie-dyed ~ he has found and hidden all the permanent markers in the house.  He only takes them out whenever someone isn't looking, or is in the bathroom and then colors his body from head to toe. He then runs and hides them again
6. He's a little O.C.D. ~ he likes things to be in their place, mostly small things like keys, cell phones, credit cards, etc.  He is the only one who knows what their places are.
7. He says "Shut-up Woo Woo" everytime a dog barks ~ nearly ALL of our neighbors have dogs.
8., 9., & 10. He did all of the following today:

Hump Day Stats:
Food: Why is it that asking for non-fat milk in your coffee drink doesn't automatically keep whipped cream from getting added?  Friggin' McCafe idiots. Anyway: iced-latte, diet coke, veggie straws, apple, baked potato, asparagus, piece of cheese, 4 m&ms
Movement: Chasing toddler around park, taking out fuckton  a lot of trash, cleaning litter box
