Just One of Those Days......

Today has been a bad day. Not in the anything major has happened way, but the I am a stay at home mom and my kids (and I) woke up on the wrong side of the bed. I tossed and turned all night, Carter woke up at 6am (uggg) and I had NO SPLENDA to fix me a cup of coffee! To turn our day around I thought FAMILY NAP TIME! Which normally works out great. Everyone eats lunch then takes a two hour or so nap, wakes up happy and our day is saved! However that did not happen today. My "big" kids went down great, which is a huge accomplishment since they do not normally take a nap, then there was Elizabeth. My sweet, chubby cheeked, ball of fire decided today was the day she would start climbing out of her crib. I knew this day was coming but not today, not on family nap day! I put her in her crib, kissed her night night, said I love you, shut the door....then BAM! NOOOOOOOOO!!!! Needless to say she did not nap. To top that off I walked in on her naked, poop diaper in the floor and my sweet,sweet baby holding the wipes saying "I DID IT!" My question is what happens next? Yes, I know that it is time for the dreaded toddler bed, but is that the end of peaceful naps and sleeping past 7am? But all that aside, it is no excuse for my AWFUL behavior today. My sweet, handsome, loving hubby called to tell me something funny to "cheer me up" and I could not laugh, not even an "Awww sweetie that is funny, thanks for thinking about me". I did call to tell him I am sorry and I am cooking his fav for dinner. But still no excuse for my behavior. Ok, I think that is enough ranting about this day. Time to shake it off and thank GOD for all my blessings (even at 6am, with no nap and poop in the floor)!
