Toddler and Preschooler Check-in (11/15)

[hawkward]

Age: 2y10m
Milestones: PTing
Challenges: PTing. He's actually doing very well, but he won't poop in the toilet yet, and he and H had a poop disaster today.
Funny/cute stories: On the poop theme, when I got home from my errands today, the first thing he said was "daddy's scared of poop." When I told him I was sad he wasn't my baby anymore, he said "I a big boy... but I grandma's baby."
How are you? Good! I had to buy new pants today (two sizes smaller!) and I tried on the tall boots I've been coveting today, and they fit perfectly! I'm making H buy them for me for my birthday next week.
QOTW: My grandma's rolls! I can make them, but mine are never as good as hers, and she hardly ever makes them anymore.

Age: 2.5 weeks to 3 years old!

Milestones: According to him, doing two somersaults in a row. According to me, sometimes waking up to use potty at night, or waking up almost dry and asking to use potty right away (100% PT'd when awake, though!)

Challenges: He chipped his tooth last week, nerve was exposed and had a bandaid placed. Trying to keep him from bumping it everything. Also seems to have dropped his nap which leads to an extremely hyper child in the evenings.

Funny/cute stories: Grandma asked him who made him so smart. He answered,"Not Grandma!" Then said,"Mommy did it!"

How are you? Exhausted these days. I think partly stress.

Anything else? My H inherited his grandma's house. There are over 10,000 records in it. So much work to go through. We'll tear house down eventually, rebuild and move there. Better schools.

QOTW: Best Thanksgiving food? Champagne? Actually I love the antipasto we always start off with best. I make pizza rustica.
