Gummy Bears, Trash, and Laundry

This is all about my cutie Ammon. Today he wanted some gummy bears and I wanted him to say please (which he can do he did it just yesterday). He didn't want to, he wanted to cry until I gave them to him, but I refused and after a couple minutes of trying to prompt it out of him I gave up and went to do my hair (taking the precious gummy bears with me of course). After a few minutes Ammon quietly stole into the bathroom climbed the counter, grab the gummies, and shoved them into his mouth. I only just noticed what he done when he was on he way back down and out the door. The little sneak!

But he's not all bad he's just Mr. Jackal and Mr. Hyde. Sometimes he can be very cute, sweet, and helpful. Like yesterday, must have been Help Mommy Day (some holiday I didn't know about, but appriciated). Ammon wanted to help take out the trash. It was so cute (and awkward) helping him hold the bag and walk it out to the trash can. He was very proud of himself. He also had to put away his own clothes. He saw his big brother Ethan putting his clothes away and so he wanted to do it too. It was awesome!

Today though besides the gummy bear incident Ethan and Ammon had a horrific tug-a-war fight over Ethan's underpants (he'd just had a bath). Ammon wanted them and wouldn't give them up. I had to intervene by getting Ammon a pair of his and putting them over his diaper. He also had several temper tantrums. Where did my helpful Ammon go?
