Freaky Friday

Today has been weird... We did make it to the Inlet this morning but didn't end up staying as long as we had originally anticipated. While the website said there would be trails, we wrongly assumed that we would be able to pull the wagon on them. Oops... We did check out a couple of the peers and some of the other park area, but ended up heading back into town and having lunch at (Noah's favorite) Melbourne Beach Park. He has been obsessed with this lately and we're not sure why. Grant and I have only taken him there a couple of times, but he has been asking constantly for the last couple of weeks to go there all the time. We ended up having our picnic there and then the kiddos played for awhile.

On the way home we told Noah that if he took a good nap there would be a surprise for him when he got up. Yesterday, I got a free movie from Redbox via Facebook and we had gotten a movie for Noah to watch tonight as a treat. Somehow it seems every time we tell him he has to take a nap he does just the opposite. He and Mikayla got themselves into quite a bit of trouble for absolutely refusing to take a nap today. Two and a half hours later Grant and I finally realized it was a losing battle and got them up.

After much discussion we caved and decided he could watch the movie anyway. Bad idea. Because of the movie he refused to eat dinner. So instead he got a fast bath and bedtime at 7pm. The crummy behavior was quite a letdown after we had so much fun this morning at the park. Oddly enough, he was happy to go to bed and went of smiling and giggling. (Further frustrating his parents, I assure you) Not sure why he's in a funk but hopefully tomorrow will go better. Until then...
