iPhone Fun!

I finally got an iPhone. Being a stay-at-home-Momma, I don't really need one, but I love it! I've been playing around with it, looking for a cool protective cover for it (there are so many options) and entertaining myself and Wee Man a bit with it. It definitely made my prenatal doc appointment and glucose test (with a 1 hour wait at the lab) this morning fly by.

I am most adoring the educational apps that Duck Duck Moose makes for toddlers. I've let my Wee Man play one of the games and he is enamored by the interactivity! My favorites so far are Baa, Baa Black Sheep and Itsy Bitsy Spider. I know I'll be able to fall back on those apps when an otherwise unavoidable toddler freak-out is potentially on the horizon. Not that we get many while in public, but they are definitely starting to become a little more common these days at home.

I just need to continue to try my best not to become a "tantruming" adult when he gets seriously out of sorts, like yesterday for example. Felt like I might slowly be losing my marbles by the end of the day yesterday...seriously! I am trying so hard not to yell, which is proving more difficult than I thought when frustrations are at their peak. But, I don't want to raise him in a yelling home, so I need to continue to work on this myself. I do believe that once Ty isn't working out of town all week long (as he has been for over 2 months now) things will get better for both Wee Man and Momma. At least there will be a relief at the end of the day and I know his absence is noticed by Wee Man. I make it sound like it's terrible...it's really not. Just the last week or so has been a bit trying because he has been refusing nap time and just playing in his room instead, and then (since he still needs nap time) is a huge grumpo for the rest of the day, driving his Momma a little batty.

But, he's napping today! Yay! Hence the blog post. Ha.
