you know it's a good toddler weekend when...

…you have to leave a store before buying anything because a tantrum has reached epic proportions.

…your child wakes up at 5:15 a.m. two days in a row.

…Sunday afternoon’s nap, which should be two hours, turns out to be only one hour.

…when you take him to the park after much pleading, he becomes extremely upset when the swings are occupied and says loudly and whiningly “MY SWINGS! MY SWINGS!”

...and, to cap it all off, your child pees in the closet.*

Two is awesome.

*I have to confess that I found the peeing in the closet incident to be rather funny. My husband, not so much, because he was on cleanup detail.

On the contrary, I found it hilarious. These are the moments you treasure...

peeing in the closet is one step closer to potty training!! (well, or at least such is the line I would feed my spouse should it happen to me!)

You will love these memories some day. Really.

since I don't have kids, I can only relate via a college memory. Random dormmate burst into my room completely drunk one night. She apparently was convinced that my roommate's closet was the bathroom, closing the door behind her. I slid the door open to find her in a squat peeing. ...something tells me that wasn't quite as cute as Evan's antics.
