Sometimes I swear I married the most immature person ever. I'm sick of being told that I'm the one who is having the "bitch fits" in this house.
Last night Kyan was wanting Pizza for dinner. After explaining that we didn't have any pizza he began to whimper and whine a little bit. I knew he was getting tired and didn't really want to eat because now that he's doing the no nap time thing he either tries to fall asleep in the high chair at dinner or at night snack, or he doesn't want to do either because sitting down slows him down and he falls asleep. So dh decided to tell him, "If you're a good boy, Daddy will take you for stuffed crust pizza tomorrow night!"
PERFECT! Because I wanted to get my hair trimmed tonight, need a few things at the store, and didn't want to be running all day tomorrow when I was going to take Ky to my parents to swim in the afternoon since we won't be visiting on Sunday becuase my MIL and SIL are coming.
At roughly 3:45, 15 minutes before quitting time dh decides to call to ask if I need anything and tell me that he doesn't want to go to get pizza. My plans and prep were completely ruined. I didn't thaw anything out for dinner, I had no back up plan, nothing.
I put Kyan down for a nap becuase he woke up way to early to not do one today (first time all week!) and went upstairs to do a few things. When he got home we got into a little tiff about it. I knew walking into the door he had a chip on his shoulder. Apparently they had a surprise party for him and another co-worker for their 1 year anniversary with the company today and bringing home a left over $5 pizza was going to make up for the fact that he promised his little boy a trip out of the house amongst people for a family dinner tonight.
All day long I heard, "Daddy at work?! Daddy home! Daddy an pizza! In da jeep! Bye bye Mommy!" and I told him, Oh yeah, we were going, I was going to cut my hair blah de dah. And the answer I got to it from dh, "I'M ALLOWED TO CHANGE THE PLANS. IT'S MY RIGHT. HE'LL FORGET ABOUT." So when he woke up and started talking about going somewhere to Daddy and then got a slice of leftover pizza and a high chair, he was not pleased. Nor was he okay with just going to the park that he goes to all the time.
Tonight I've also heard such classics as :
1. "You can quit bitching and crying and go get your hair cut by yourself and we'll be fine here alone" which sounds lovely except he lets him nap longer so he doesn't have to deal with him then promptly goes to bed leaving me up with him until he poops out. He also gives me an attitude about staying out later when I have to wait to get it cut, and he doesn't bath or start the bedtime routine and expects me to come home and do it.
2. "Are you goign to do anything today?!" which I responded by telling him I'd respond to him when he rephrased it nicely. I'm sorry, your nap until 6:!5 doesn't let me go get a hair cut when I drive 30 minutes to get there, wait and they don't cut hair all night long.
I just wish he'd grow up. I'm tired too but I don't get to be. I'm sick of this place more than he is and yes I realize he works and drives to and fro but give me a break too sometimes.
So if Kyan is up until 10:30 tonight, we're hopping in the car and going to Walmart. I'm not "making a day of it" tomorrow to get up, go to a park that's an extra $15 in gas and 45 minute drive just becuase it's by his work when we have good ones in this county, going out to eat, going to the store, getting my hair trimmed and then coming home to tidy up before my in laws arrive and worry about that whole day going smoothly. Not going to happen. In fact, I didn't even want pizza tonight, a simple dollar menu type deal at Wendy's would've been okay with me and Kyan and much cheaper to do a nicer dinner on Sunday or tomorrow with his family, if we even do it.
Why won't he just quit coping the attitude and grow up. It's his right to do that too ya know.
Hugs to you
