Them having their own seats will be a game changer!

Agree. The latest one was this cheap water table from amazon, it was like two feet tall and had like literally 50 little pieces. It is already broken and pieces lost. And I hate it. I hate the waste. I hate that it lasted like 10 days. I hate that I had to put it together. I hate that I had to recycle the box. I hate that I have to dry out the pieces. I hate that it was a waste of money. I hate that I have to send a photo of him playing with it all together and keep it around in case they come visit.

I should be super grateful and just happy but like just ask me what he wants and we can do one big gift. Egh.

Yeah, I agree. Also it has really pushed me to do more instead of less so far.

7 weeks of solo parenting starts today. We had fish sticks and watermelon for dinner just cause we can. My kid has adopted a dead butterfly, the whole walk home he said “mama, thank you for bringing the butterfly home” as I carried that, my kid, the dogs leash and a filled poop bag back home on our walk.

I wanted this too for a short period in High school and phased out of it by the time I graduated. I feel like I wasn’t sure what I was going to do with my life and that was an easy answer.

Describing things happening as missions is super cute though.

So sleep has been an issue over here, but for three days straight my kid has slept through the night. Tonight he looked at me and said bedtime and I went in his room and put him to sleep. This is huge for me. My kid sleeping has been a big fight between me and my husband and I am doing it my way and it is working, knock on wood.

My husband leaves for 2 months this weekend and for the first time I am not worried about how hard being around a kid alone will be.

:)

It really depends on the age but I try to do consequences that make sense for whatever they did. Like if my kid spills water on purpose he just doesn’t get as much water or gets it taken away.

Psh, I have had that fear for months.

We always get sick from the children’s museums!! It’s the best time ever and then we pay for all the fun we had. Lol

Can you ping me on this account. My other one will be deleted :( (waitaminute@lemm.ee)
