It’s great to see after trying for so long. Now we just have the challenge that they want to ride their balance bikes still because they’re faster
Asking me a question then asking me “why did you say that?” When i answer the question is a really good bit but it is getting way overdone
I frequently get stuck in the loop of question -> I answer -> 2 minutes later -> kiddo gives me a “did you know” with the same answer I just provided.
I love that tbh
Managed to avoid a “I’m not tired” tantrum by tricking the kiddo into running some dolls through our bed time routine yesterday lol. Maybe getting someone ready for bed is just naturally exhausting

This is so smart.
Feeling the evening start to teeter into chaos really gets the creative pre-panic thinking going lol
Baby Beaver is pooping in the bathtub RIGHT NOW, AAAAAHH
Oh noooo! That’s the worst!
We held her over the toilet to see if anymore came out. Unexpected start to potty training!
Its Wednesday my dudes!
Boy am I scared for my kid lately
Anything in particular?
My dude said “I have to pee!!” While getting a bath and held it while I got him on the potty, TWICE! That’s awesome progress.
We’ve been doing more potty training recently before they move up a class in childcare and we’ve had a couple of nights of dry nappies in the morning
That’s a good sign!
