Consistently inconsistent

You and your sister are making our lives interesting. Granted you did not get to take your normal nap (12:30 to 2:30, it was short due to a party) and you fell asleep on the way home and slept once we arrived (6-7:45?). But two nights ago you asked to sleep in your crib without a story (probably because it was late?) and you slept till 6:30 and nicely slept in our bed till 8. Then last night you slept on the way home (11pm?) and slept thru till 7am.

Now you want to fall asleep on the floor with me. Why?

Throwing

Jebus you love to throw things. We let you throw soft things and balls but you want to throw everything.

I still can’t believe you picked up a rock and threw it a couple times. Then proceeded to walk over to a parked car and hit it with the rock.

Scared of the toilet

I got you ready for your bath and you farted on my arm as we walked to the bathroom. I thought maybe you needed to poop so i put you on the toilet. You cried big time. A little weird because you love to sit on the training toilet and seem to have no problem touching the big toilet when we don’t want you too.

I probably tried too soon. But I hope we don’t have to go thru what we did with Julia.

Bath update

You’ve gotten better about water on your face/head. Yesterday you were throwing water on your own head and laughing. Even when it went in your face you were pretty ok with it (likely due to Julia and I laughing to make you think it was ok).

Words words

Teachers at bright star told us you are saying ‘please’ and ‘more please’ when you ask for food.

You’ve said it at home but only after I remind you of the word. Still very cute the way you say it…peas.

Finally you are saying Julia or close to it. More like Ulia.

You said cavalo though I think you skip the first letter. Hrm, pattern?

Bedtime routine

After I got back from Seattle (or rather while I was gone) you started asking to sleep (mimi) in the crib after reading your books. That is a nice welcome surprise.

I did hold your hand but it went pretty well.

However, things keep changing. You started asking for animals and crying for an unknown reason. I started laying with you on the floor till you fell asleep and then I’d put you in your crib.

Then Leandro and family came to visit. So you slept in the pack and play in our room. Julia was on the inflatable mattress in our room as well. You asked to sleep with her. The first time you actually slept, probably because you we’re super tired as everyone stated up late with the new guests (Rafa stays up till 11pm?). Later you thought it was too much fun laying with Julia so you didn’t sleep. I took you to our bed and laid with you there till you fell asleep. That didn’t work very long either. Next day I had to walk and sing you to sleep before putting you in the pack and play.

When everyone left you seemed happy to go to your crib. You didn’t sleep they though that could have been due to a stuffy nose. The next night (last night from this post) you slept till 5:15 am and wouldn’t go back to sleep until I took you down for some Cheerios.

Ya

You really seem to like to confirm our questions with a kind of long “yaaa”. Too cute.
