I had a tougher day …


I had a tougher day today.

I didn’t get a whole lot of sleep last night.

I had to cancel therapy because I accidentally zonked Jonah with melatonin and forced him into a late nap.

When he woke up, Jonah started lashing out and I have no idea why.

It’s definitely communicative and I don’t understand what the issue is. He’s voicing frustration as best he can.

He hit me repeatedly this evening. He threw his full sippy cup at Mama.

His nose is stuffy. I wonder if he has the same bug Jonny did last week? Perhaps that is the issue. Is he sick?

Ugh. I hope not. Jonny is still on antibiotics.

I don’t know if I could even get Jonah to TAKE any medicine.

Also, Jonah no longer tolerates putting new shirts on.

He wore the same shirt for 6 days.

I was finally able to get it off him when I could convince him to get in the bathtub and I washed it (It will be temporarily out of stock for a bit until he is okay wearing the other shirts).

Yesterday, he didn’t want to wear another shirt at all after his bath so we just went without one. All the way to Grammy and papas house.

He finally relented yesterday after wanting to go to the park and realizing he would be wet and cold. He very much DISLIKES being both.

So today is wearing a NEW shirt but refused to change out of THIS one into jammies at bedtime.

I wonder if this is a phase or if this is a pattern.

Today was also the 2nd day I was able to send him to school without a pull-up and he came home clean and dry. (Yay?)

He didn’t actually use the bathroom…he held it for like 7 hours…until he got home… on the carpet.

So he peeled his pants and underwear off and was running around in the only shirt I can get him in.

Like I said. Today was a tough one.
