Parenting "wins"

[teraiin]

Let's share some of our prouder parenting moments. Come up with anything clever? Manage to get everyone dressed and out the door on time today??

Anything, big or small. Seems like most of us are having the Monday of Monday's.

Both of my kids like to sleep in on days where I have to get up and out at a certain time. So when my alarm went off at 7 today I said f it, I'm staying in bed until someone wakes up. I ended up staying in bed until 7:40 and I still got out the door with everyone fed and clean and mostly dressed by 8:50!!

Nothing super major.

I have started folding a wash cloth in the hooded baby towels because I was constantly grabbing towels but no wash clothes...

I found a perfect size plastic container for the freezer for the milk.

This smiles is a parenting win!

Baby I is ridiculously well behaved in public. Not a peep! Smiles at passers by. Is happy to meet anyone and smiles when people talk to him. Like... I don't think he's cried in public in months. And everyone constantly comments on what a chill babe we have. That feels like a win. Or very good luck. Or a unicorn baby. But I feel pretty proud that everyone he meets loves him.

+1 to a chill, happy baby. Although I don't think it's anything I did, he just has my personality.

I'm also proud of how independent ds1 is, even if I hate it at times. Like at malls and crowded areas.

A does so so so well with Cam! I can tell by the way he looks at him that he just loves him so much! It makes me so happy because I had a lot of guilt about the lack of attention I was able to give him after Cam was born. Also he's precious in the way he wants to hold Cam, gives him kisses, is always bringing him his toys, pacifiers, burp rags, etc. He wants to take care of his little brother and it's the sweetest thing ever! Also the way he says Cam's name is adorable. He says it with a "ch" sound instead of a hard "k" sound at the beginning. Melts my heart! ❤️

DD added two new "foods" to things she'll eat. Marshmallows and cheese puffs, but I'll take it! The struggle is real. (And THIS is why I don't give a rat's ass about the puree vs BLW debate or homemade vs. store bought for DS. We do what's easy since it won't matter in the long run.)

DS1 brought over his most prized Kermit the frog and gave it to Ds2 saying "here Luccibear, you can have a turn..."

Too cute!!!

oh I am sure ours is purely luck with personality too, but it's still good for my Mommy ego to hear compliments about it ☺️

The kids love each other so much. J loves to get super close to the baby's face, almost touching noses. This usually ends with her grabbing a handful of his hair and yanking. Small steps I guess.

my toddler cries when we go home after camping. "No go home! More camp!" thats a win to me.
