Biting

While I was laying in bed last night I started to laugh out loud. Ben asked me what the heck was going on and I told him that I realized how funny my trip to the grocery store was today. I hadn't taken the time to laugh about it because my boys were being such stinkers at the time. So this is how it started, I had a average size grocery list but I had both boys and its thanksgiving week so it's pretty busy. I load the boys in the cart so I don't have to worry about loosing anyone. Deakan immediately takes the back of the cart, that way he can see both sides of the isle. Maverick obviously wants to be in the same spot. There is enough room for both of them but Deakan did not want to scoot to one side and share the back of the cart. After a few "santa is watching" speeches he scooted over just enough to let mavericks two hands hold the back of the cart. I was ignoring the situation hoping they would get over it when maverick snapped. He bent over with his teeth out and bit what he thought was Deakan hand blocking his space in the cart. Maverick has never bitten anyone but Deakan, but he has bitten Deakan several times. After taking a tight squeeze with his teeth he realized that something was hurting his hand he began to scream and handed me the bitten hand to kiss. He had bitten his own hand thinking it was Deakan. I'm not sure if he put it together because he was in so much pain. I didn't get a chance to laugh about this At the grocery store because I was trying to calm him and move out of the way of other busy shoppers but it was by far the funniest thing I've seen all week.
