We ventured out today for the first time in, well, a while. I don't get out as much as I used to anymore, and now with two kids it kind of feels like wrestling a greased alligator uphill between getting the kids ready, getting in and out of the car, and walking around with them both. And that's with Billy's help. I imagine how much harder it would be with just me and the kids, and I shudder.
Weston is reaching the stage where when he's upset he wants absolutely nothing to do with billy. He will cry and scream until I get him. I can tell it's upsetting Billy that he's not able to comfort him but he knows it's only a stage.
It was chilly, and despite me wearing Weston, he was still shivering anytime we had to walk outside. As much as I wish hibernation were an option in order to protect him from the elements, it seems unrealistic.
All day Landon was imitating everything Billy said, watching him intently and then trying to mimic what he said and the gestures he paired with it. He idolizes his dad in a way thats both awe inspiring and jealousy inducing. He's also doing excellently with potty training. He wears his underwear when we go out and has had no accidents so far; in fact, in the last month he's only had 1 accident. We didn't push it on him at all, he just took to it on his own and started going more and more. I thought with Weston being born, he would regress with the progress he had made on his own, but it was the exact opposite- he got it down even quicker. He is also a master at being adorable to get what he wants.
I'm looking into buying some Osnaburg fabric and dye offline to make and customize a secondary wrap. I'm liking wrapping so much more than the Ergo- it's easier to nurse him and it breathes a little better so he doesn't overheat.
This will be an interesting venture in writing an actual substance blog, so bear with me as I figure it all out!
