Our lives as parents

So….the potty training has come to a halt! Sort of. Aden’s fascination with the potty has waned either because he isn’t ready yet or he knows he will have to get into a knock-down drag out with Mama if she decides to push it and he doesn’t want to. I’m telling you this kid is stubborn. For instance, he doesn’t like his front teeth brushed. Gotta tell you, they look pretty grimy after a while! So, every other night I have to hold him down and brush his front teeth. He screams his bloody head off! If he had sensitive gums, then I’d understand but he brushes his back teeth just fine. I’m convinced he screams so loudly because he thinks he should do it. ONLY he won’t do it.

Aden celebrates his second Christmas with the obligatory Santa photo shoot.

My baby is definetly a toddler now and his first birthday is next month! There have been so many changes and they have all happened so fast!

Almost one year old! Can temper tantrums come early?
You are doing this thing-when we take something from you or move you when you are not ready and you throw your whole body back as hard as you can while simultaniously whining. You’ve knocked your head a couple of times, but we have been able to catch you most of the time. Note to self, get a baby helmet.
