So today I went to visit my mom & sister in law. I haven't been to my mom's house in quite a while. I was pretty excited to go. And Lil J has been well behaved lately, for the most part. I think on some level you just get used to toddler misbehavior & it starts to seem fairly well behaved even though to an outsider it doesn't look well behaved AT ALL. But he hasn't done anything extremely bad for quite a while now. So I was hopeful that all would go well.
Sigh........
It's not that he did anything horrible, but he was pretty roudy. When we first got there he was being a shy guy & wanted me right by his side, but soon enough he was ready to be Mr. Roudy. Why is it that he can play nicely here at home, but when I go to someone else's house he gets all crazy & roudy & has to be touching everything & grabbing everything & trying to play with everything.
It's so exhausting.
On a positive note I guess all that roudiness wore him out cuz he fell asleep on the drive home. So now I at least get a little break. I honestly can't recall the last time he actually took a nap.
I would love to know if other toddlers do the same thing.

Landon and Hannah are really used to going out visiting so even though they WANT to get into everything, they're pretty good about listening not to touch things. I always bring a ton of toys and snacks to try to help keep them preoccupied. I love taking them visiting to my mom's or my gramma's or pretty much anybody's home but I do NOT enjoy taking them shopping with me.
