I asked Djo what i should be (career wise)

Him: a sausage that talks. Me: a talking sausage??? Him: yeah, a costume sausage that talks. Sooo..I guess I could be one of those people dressed up outside the restaurant handing out coupons and menus?? Lol.

Well then..

I definitely can’t be the one to drop Djo off in the mornings.  He was crying a lot, which wasn’t really the issue, it was more the fact that he was screaming and kicking and I couldn’t pick him up out of his car seat.  I’m finding more and more lately that he’s too strong and too heavy, so when he doesn’t want to be picked up its a struggle for me.  He didn’t even have shoes on yet and I couldn’t get them on his feet since he kept kicking, and every time I would undo his buckles he would try and do them back up.  I sat in the van with him for about 20 minutes trying to convince him to go in, I was super upbeat the whole time, telling him he would have fun just like he did yesterday, he wasn’t having it though.  Eventually we were already 15minutes late for the drop off time and Brajan needed to get to work so I needed to get back home, I just gave up.  I also didn’t call to tell them he wasn’t coming in today because phone calls give me anxiety.  So yup, all around fail on my part.  I already told Djo that Tata would bring him to school tomorrow, and once again he’s acting all excited about it, but I’m sure Brajan will have a hard time tomorrow morning too.. at least he’s stronger than me lol.

Success!!

Today went great at daycare!! Brajan felt terrible after he dropped Djo off, he was crying a lot and screaming for tata :( BUT he stopped crying soon after. They said at first he just sat and coloured and observed everyone but then he joined in and had a lot of fun :) im so happy. He was so cute when i went to pick him up and he hadnt noticed me yet! We left him until right before lunch today and tomorrow will pick him up right before nap time.. I told him already and he excitedly told me "im not going to cry this time!!" with a big smile on his face haha.

I just got my first woven wrap! About to wash it :) just wondering what carry you recommend trying first, I really have no experience. Also any good YouTube links? I do better with videos than instruction booklets lol.

Congrats!  FWCC (front wrap cross carry) is the first carry you should try!  

Here’s a video I made that should help!  :)

2 toddler things

1. Earlier I heard Djo talking to the dog "you have to be nice to ppl, I'm sorry hunny. You have to be nice. You can't growl, hunny" 2. Djo stole my "psgetti" (spaghetti, except its linguine) saying he didn't like his. Of course mine and his are exactly the same but he's happily chowing down on mine lol.

I can see your head nodding and your eyes getting heavy. No need to fight it lol.

Good start to the day :)

It took Djo awhile to notice that his stocking was full :p but the look on his face when he did was priceless! I asked him where it came from and he screamed "santaaaaa!" Idk where he even learns this stuff cause I never told him anything about Santa but he knows a lot lol. Anyways I made him wake Brajan up before he could open his stocking, he ran in the room "santa came! Santa came!" Now we are just chilling on the couch after a nice bubble bath (he got some in his stocking, along with bath crayons) and snacking in stocking treats until 9ish when we will go over to my mamas for family celebrations :)

We've been at this stage with djo forever

Where if he's naked, he will pee in his potty. If he's in a diaper, he will pee in his diaper. If he's in undies, he will tell you not to look at him, and then pee in his undies. Sigh. Im not in any rush for him to be out of diapers, although it would be nice .. I just dont understand, is he ready or not?
