I Never Met A Chocolate I Didn't Like...

OH today.  Today has been a crazy day.  I had a Doctors appointment at 12:00 this afternoon and decided I would be brave and actually take Noah with me.  The drive is about 25 minutes, so of course he fell asleep in the car.  I was hoping that he would sleep a little bit more in the stroller, but that didn't happen.  So, after a 20 minute nap he was up for good.  Usually, in those cases, I can lay him down again in the afternoon and he will nap twice - but that didn't work either.   So we were both cranky.  

After Andy got finished with class he sent me a text and Noah and I headed out to pick him up (remember, one of our cars is having issues).  We stopped at the commissary to pick up a few things and I decided to pick up some healthy choice chocolate bars.   Noah was begging to have one (by begging I mean whining) and I figured, why not!?  So on the drive home he enjoyed a chocolate ice cream bar.  I had honestly forgotten about it until we got home and found him like this....


Looks like his lack of sleep finally caught up to him.  The best part about the whole thing??  As he dozed in and out of sleep he continued to try and finish the ice cream.  Then when we finally got him out of the car, he started asking for more!   I don't think Andy and I have ever laughed so hard....it was pretty hilarious.



Needless to say, my cranky mood turned a lot lighter after seeing this.  Even though being a mom can be frustrating at times, there are moments that make you realize just how much you love it.  This was one of those moments for me.  I sure love this little guy, even when he is cranky.
