It has been a while...
since I blogged. Boy is life crazy with 2 kids and when I find time I'm just tired....so let's see what has been going on.
-Potty training was going GREAT and now not so much! I'm tired of fighting a 2.5 yr old on a daily basis...numerous times over EVEYTHING. So I choose to pick my battles, the potty isn't one I choose to fight right now. I will he will train in time, when he is ready.
-I want my sweet Avery back...he seems to be a MONSTER lately. I know most of it is his age and the fact that he has a new brother, but man does it wear on one's nerves(and daddy's too) we aren't sure what is causing the acting out(fighting bedtime/naptime, throwing stuff, hitting, asking to do one thing and he does the opposite.) He is usually very good whene we get out of the house(which I suppose can be a blessing) but at home well...its yet to be desired.
-Quinn turned 3 months old today. He is still nursing which is great. His sleeping has gotten a lot better at night and during the day well he has good and bad days. I don't know how he got to be so old already!!
-he laughs, smiles, and coos a lot. I love those moments the best!
Keith and I are both still struggling to get things into a rhythm with 2 kids. Its still not working...a friend asked me the other day if I ever felt a disconnect to my husband after having kids...yes and I still do. it seems like we are so busy with the kids and house by the time we get to bed we may have 5 mins together and then we are both out like a light. We have now dedicated sunday as "no housework/chores" day. This way we can just spend the day together as a family and let all else go(except cooking/making meals and i may wash diapers, but those are needed) We want to start going out once a week just the 2 of us...but we need someone to watch the kids and i need to get over leaving my boys. Plus we don't have any extra money but keith even volunteered to go grocery shopping if it means going without kids! I laughed! He hates shopping!
well that's an update for now! ill post pictures as soon as I can.
