Sleepless Sunday

It was mother's day and we spent the day at my parents after going to church, he was not happy to get up early to go to church. I don't think anyone was happy, then we went to my parents' house to eat lunch and ended up eating at 4:30 pm! Alexis was really tired as I was too, I was falling asleep when talking to my grandma in the cell phone. I did not want to leave my parents' house though until my cousins did because I knew that once they were gone, the good food was out like: Salami! I love salami, I drool every time I smell salami! but my cousins wouldn't leave even though they said that they were going to do so right after eating, this was pushing Alexis' limits, he was too tired and therefore hyper. He wanted to run outside, he actually ran away twice while my dad was cooking in the grill, he was running and laughing but he was in his diaper and it was cold outside, plus it is not good to just go outside and run, I don't want him to think it is ok for him to do that and then going into the street. When Cameron caught him it was a show! he wouldn't stop crying nor screaming, he was so mad, nothing could calm him down. This is the first time that he has stayed mad for so long, and he wouldn't forget, my dad open the apartment's door again and he ran again and Cameron got him again and there was another show. I tried to explain why he couldn't run outside but as soon as he saw me kneeling down in front of him he understood that I was going to say something like "you can't do what you want to do right now" even though that is not exactly what I say, at the end it is the simplest logic one can conclude and Alexis knows it. Finally I told Cameron to try to play "Little Einsteins" for him and immediately he calmed down. Uff, how something simple can calm and stubborn baby from doing something that he "desperately" wants, still amazes me.
