A day from hell....



So, today I decided to take Alex for his haircut as his hair has been out of control. He takes after me, we both have some major bed head going on. Mine is more on the Rasta side of the track, his gets pretty wild but it's straight so it more so sticks out everywhere. We left the house around 9:30am. It was about a 45 minute wait at the salon since we didn't have an appointment. Alex was all over the place. Running around in circles, dancing to the 80's music playing in the background, knocking over tons and tons of hair products. Even the old lady with the bright pink lipstick (so 88 and out of date) couldn't keep her eyes of him. Bribing him to sit still with a "bubble" aka lolipop did not work. Finally, it was his turn and did great getting his locks chopped.

After the salon trip from hell, I decided to make a quick trip into the grocery store in the same shopping center. Big No No! Alex didn't want to sit on the cart so that was my first struggle. Next, as I was picking out some strawberries, Alex got a hold of 2 large bags of purple grapes and dumped them all over the floor. Nice! After my pregnant butt got down on the ground to pick up the grapes, Alex then proceeded to throw a banana across the room. Luckily, he missed the lady in the wheelchair 2 feet in front of him. He did however chuck his shoe into another gentleman's shopping cart. Great aim but I was so embarrassed. As soon as I got the little sucker home, it was time for him to visit his crib so that I could re-compose myself before pulling out my hair! And that was our day from hell....all before noon:)
