Ok ok . It's been about a year since I've posted and things have gotten a little busier. I find myself doing other things besides a computer at night and my internet is blocked for bloggers at work. So what's a girl to do?
I'll tell you what dot dot dot find a phone app for blogging. Right now my phone has the great function of turning voice to text and I'm trying it out. Maybe this keep the family updated a little bit more on things.
Well gosh what am I supposed to say that sums up a whole year? I could say so much but my mind finds so little.
Maybe I'll just start with something simple. Lets Start with Frances and my now. 2 year old girl . She is now have a crazy crazy age where she wants to do everything herself. I want something done I try to trick her to think it was her idea in the first place. For instance sometimes she doesn't want to go to bed and stands in the crib and jumps around. I ask her when she is ready to lay down and then leave the room. As soon as I start to leave she says "ready" and lays down. Then I can tuch her in and say goodnight. Also getting in the car is a nightmare. What you to take 3 minutes now drags out for almost 10 minutes. She has to decide which shoes to put on which coat to put on and if she's going to be putting on a coat and if she is able to be put in the car seat or if she has to climb up a and if she buckles herself or lets us do it. It's a pain in the b*** and I often turn to bribery such as a piece of candy or a toy or doll or even a dumb song. Henry was such a compliant kid, this throws me for a little loop.
Still we're doing ok. We are taking extra time, we give her choices if is one if available and let her cry if she needs to. And besides that she is great; she can be the sweetest thing on the planet in those moments make it worth it.
That's a pretty good start and I'll try to continue it as I can.
