What is on my mind....

What is on my mind today? Potty training, my new love for Mumford and Sons, Jonahs birthday, and how to make time stop......

Lets just start with potty training. I HATE IT. Normally, I have a pretty sweet, laid back, and all around good kid. But we have been working on potty training since last Saturday and it has not been fun. Not one bit. Yesterday he just didn't want to do it, so he wet himself multiple times. Then today, after being so tired of staying home, I decide we need to go to the library and the park. I put him in a pull up and off we go. I was totally thinking he would go in the pull up as soon as we left the house, but he didn't! He sought out every bathroom he could while we were out and stayed dry until we got home. Now I see why some people choose to let their kids go naked outside, free to pee wherever :) It is just so confusing with him, is he into it or is he not. We shall see what tomorrow holds.

I love Mumford and Sons right now. That is all for that thought.

Jonahs birthday is on Monday and he will be 3.

This thought goes with the next thought, where has time gone? I can not believe my baby will be 3. I can not believe I just said "my baby".... I feel old. And while I am writing this my 4.5 month old is staring at me from his bouncer. Where did the last 4.5 months go? Time just keeps getting faster and faster, it is so incredibly scary to me. So how do we make time stop? Well fine... I know I can't make time stop but I do have some ideas I want to put into practice. First off, I want to remember to stop what I am doing, whatever it is, for my kids. Nothing is more important than making sure they know their mommy loves them and that they know they are greatly valued. For this second one I need to set it up a bit. Jonah has this book, I can't remember what it is called, but it is about all the lasts a child has. Like the last time they want to read books before bed, or the last time they want to be held.... I don't want to just let anything pass by me, I want to cherish all of their firsts and all of their lasts.

Alright this blog post is a jumbled mess, but I needed to get it all out there. I will get better at this I promise :)
