On being Landyn’s momma

On being Landyn’s Momma…

1. Don’t waste your time slaving in the kitchen, because without fail she will insist on pb&j or mac and cheese anyways.

2. Every fall requires mommy’s recognition (a kiss) to make it better. It’s the immediate healer.

3. You’ve been to the pool everyday at 6am for a week. Talk about burn out.

4. If you don’t listen to her demands, she will refer to you by your first name.

5. A sense of self has officially set in. Each day calls for a new ensemble.

6. Big girl panties are a BIG DEAL, and she WILL show them off to everyone…strangers included.

7. Plan for an extra 5 minutes before going ANYWHERE so the baby dolls can be strapped in the car…safety first.

8. Sister can walk a dog like it’s her job.

9. Our hardest battle to date…brushing teeth…I swear it’s next to impossible.

10. 3 years old is in our very near future….and the girl’s got plans.

  7. Too cute!! Landyn & Camryn sound like they could be best buds. I seriously don’t know how she can eat so much mac + cheese but she always demands it :) Brushing Cami’s teeth is near impossible too – I find that she will at least try it if I pretend like I”m brushing mine too :) So fun she’s almost three already – let me know if you need any printables :) XO

    She is SOOO cute! Mia is the same way…when I brush her teeth you would think I was performing surgery on her! :) And I’ve tried “let her do it herself” route and that results in toothbrush with toothpaste sucked off of, and MAYBE a brushed tongue, but certainly NOT any brushed teeth! :) Glad it’s not just our house! ;)

    Have a great 4th!

  9. She is so precious! You can tell from the pictures that she has a wonderful mommy!

  10. Hehe, this is a cute post!

    Your little girl is ADORABLE!

    (though it seems to me that her preference for pb&j and mac&cheese would only make life easier, no?)

    She is ADORABLE! My two also would prefer to eat PB&J or Mac and Cheese for every meal. Oh to be a kid again. Stopping by from SITS

    I hear you…my little guy will be 3 next month! Definitely a challenging age! But they are SO cute and excited about life. We haven’t had any luck with potty training yet…hopefully soon!
