Well, I have reached a point now where I can finally breathe! The babies only nurse once a day now. I have so much more time now. The house is finally a little bit cleaner. I get out more. We go to the park 2 days a week. Life is good.
Now I am working on potty training. What an experience that is. If there was a true secret to convincing your child that it is perfectly safe to poop in the toilet, the person who discovered it would be an instant multimillionare! What is with kids and their fear of pooping in the toilet? I know someday I will look back on this whole process and realize it wasn't as big of a deal as I thought it was so I am trying to relax about it. However, I just can't help but count every minute I spend sitting in the bathroom with him, singing songs about pooping and peeing, reading books about pooping and peeing and just talking about, you guessed it, pooping and peeing!! And it's not me who suggests all this, it's my son! He is obsessed with it. However he still won't poop. He pees occaisionally. 2 times a day, sometimes 3. We put stickers on a chart which must be filled to go to the zoo. I can't wait until he finally gets it. Any suggestions are welcome by the way!
I wonder what potty training the twins will be like. Harder because there is 2, or easier because they help each other? That will be an interesting experience as well, I am sure.
We are looking into putting our 2 1/2 year old in preschool. That will be wonderful all around. I think he would love getting out and away from us. He will love learning and showing off his new findings to us. I think he will like getting away from the babies as well. I can't wait to see what he thinks, and how he changes and grows. Parenting really is a fun experience. I thank God that He has given me this blessed opportunity. I will never understand why He trusted me with so many little ones all at once. I guess because He knew I wasn't alone. He'll never leave my side through the whole journey. Thank You Lord!
