Marcelus' Obsession







Marcelus is addicted to vacuums. He loves to "pretend" vacuum with my vacuum, or any applicable toys that can pose as a vacuum. I only let him play with our vacuum on days that I actually have to vacuum. He sometimes manages to get our vacuum at times he's not supposed to have it, even though he cannot open doors yet. When it is time to put the vacuum away, he screams and throws his biggest tantrums. Can I just say a public Thank You to my mom who is getting him a "fake" but very real looking and sounding vacuum (just his size) for Christmas.






We experienced even a bigger than vacuum tantrum at Ross a week ago when we were decided which little chair to get Marce, a soft camping looking chair or a harder patio type chair, both were Spiderman and blue. We had decided on the camping one cause you could take it anywhere (it folded and had a bag). We then discovered Marce had taken a liking to the other one. He was sitting in it and playing with another toy. So we decided to get both. They were cheap. Well, we told him this and tried to put the chair in the cart so we could check out, he threw an unbelievable tantrum and didn't realize what "buying" meant. We got him out and in the car seat finally, but we had to put the chair right next to him so he could hold on to it. Still crying, that wasn't good enough, he then had to hold the chair on top of him (how can that be comfortable). It was cumbersome and awkward but minutes later he had crashed asleep with his arms around the chair. We later snuck it into our trunk and resumed our shopping day.
