Day 11 - I Scream...You Scream

We all scream for Ice Cream.  OK, well at least one person I know does.  After dinner, we were sitting in the living room and all the sudden he got up and started prowling in the kitchen.  He opened the freezer got out the ice cream, then got out a spoon, laid them both on the kitchen counter then said to me...Mama, i want cookie ice cream.  He acts like he has to help himself to get what he wants!!

Well, we had a first this evening.  As soon as I got home, he wanted to play Don't Spill the Beans, so of course we did.  Then he wanted to play Candy Land.  So we did. (I know this is starting to sound like If You Give a Mouse a Cookie, but that is just how my life is)  Anyway, we were playing and I noticed he picked 2 cards.  The one that was supposed to be mine was an ice cream cone which would move him WAY ahead on the board.  He handed me the other card and took the ice cream.  I said...are you cheating and he said...YES!  I took the card and we put it back in the middle of the deck.  We kept playing and wouldn't you know...I drew the ice cream cone.  Boy was he mad.  He started throwing a little fit!  I said I was going to quit and he said...no, no.  I said quit crying like a baby and be a big boy.  So we kept playing....and I won!  He got mad again.  So we stopped playing games until he can stop being a sore loser!  He has never done that before.  Guess he is tired after his first day back to school.  Well, time to convince the little gripey one that he does indeed need a bath!  Wish me luck!
