I had a couple more stubborn episodes this morning.  One was wanting to wear non-matching socks.
But even so I managed to get to school on time and I was as happy as could be.

We took a cookie cake to school for me to share with my friends and celebrate my birthday.  They sang Happy Birthday to me.  The cake was not supposed to have frosting around the edge so Mimz scraped it all off.  We did leave the Happy Birthday Mason frosting.

When Mimz came to pick my up at the end of school, I was so glad to see her I ran to her, jumped to her, and almost knocked us both over. She is glad to know I love her even though I have been getting angry when I am not getting my way.

I played outside after school and when it was time to come inside, I rebelled saying over and over I wanted to stay outside.  I cried for 20 minutes.  Mimz sat down, closed her eyes, and ignored me to let me work it out.  I threw a couple of toys trying to get her attention.  Finally I climbed into Mimz arms and there I fell asleep around 2:30pm.  I have had a few outburst in my time, but these tantrums are something new. 
Mimz took me to meet Barbara so she could take me home to Mommy.  Mommy and I went to the store to get two little party pizzas.  Daddy came over and shared our pizzas and played with me.  Several times I was ready to have a tantrum but between Mommy and Daddy they managed to put out my little flame.

These pictures were taken July 14, 2012 during our Laplante family vacation in Vermont.  The pictures will be here for a week or so.  They are also posted on the correct date.  Hopefully Grandma will enter some captions soon:
