Potty time!

Yes this is the most exciting thing happening right now. Potty training! Well little k has been on and off potty training since he was 2! When I thought he was really getting it  he decided to forget about it. So I left if alone until he was closer to 3. He would go sometimes but other times would full out refuse and say "no I don't want to" or "mommy will clean diaper" haha well finally at just a bit after 3 years old this little man is fully potty trained! All on his own! Well help from us giving him little gifts when he did start going on his own. We did that a couple times and that's it. No more diapers! He was ready when he was ready! 



He even wakes a couple times at night when he has to pee! I wasn't expecting that! 

I'm so proud! Little k has always been like that! We can't force him to do things he doesn't want to do! But when he's ready he's ready and he puts his all in it! 

He's now fully ready for school next month! 

Our kids totally surprise us don't they! 

We had a fun weekend out and about. 

First we tried to get a haircut but that didn't work out ha! But a walk in the mall with his little cousin made for a fun Saturday morning. 


Friday night was date night. Dinner and a movie. We decided to go to red lobster, omg we haven't been there in years! 

We then caught a late movie. American Sniper. It was such a good movie. The theatre was silent when it was over not a word as people exited the theatre. Watch it! 

Today the weather was better so we went for a little walk in the park before running some errands. 
Weekend is over, another tired Monday ahead! Haha!

My 22 month old loves

Avocado! We all know this ha! He calls them ADO and if we are out of them I'm in trouble! 

He has one for breakfast everyday! He also loves sweet pepper he eats a whole pepper on his own! I can't complain at all about him and eating other than,  I can barely keep up sometimes. 

When he sees me pull out food to cook he wants it now! So I need to hide certain things and only show him once it's cooked! The best line from him. "Mama cook" ha! 



I still can't believe how the time is just flying by and he'll be 2 in 2 months!!! 

His vocabulary is expanding learning at least 1 new word a day! Today it was 3! Chocolate (chacchac) , mess, and fly. He loves planes so today while we were at the toy store he spotted this helicopter fan at the checkout and wouldn't let it go. He keeps saying Aaapee flyyyy (airplane fly)

I don't want to forget a thing! I've been so blessed to have spent some extra time home with him. Seeing him and all his firsts. It's the most precious gift I've ever had. I get so much joy watching him learn and grow. This little boy just melts my heart!

Yummy cookies and new shoes!?

Ohhhh yes I'm on a diet some what but these cookies are low in sugar and whole wheat! Sooooo. ;)!


Baby k isn't a milk drinker but with a cookie, a couple sips was needed. 


This cute little guy is getting ready for fall, yes fall! The leaves are already falling here. The weather is still great so we aren't complaining. We bought some new shoes. We found some great sales! 

How cute! 
And a new cars school bag with wheels! Ha! Seriously cute! 

Happy Monday!

21 months old huh 21?

Baby K is 21 months old! I had to count the months over and over and even asked my friend how old her son was because they are a month apart. 21 months old!!! Where are these days going! 

Little man is still in size 18 months and size 4 diapers. Shoe size will be moving up to 5.5 or 6 soon. He's 21 months 21 pounds ha! 

He is learning 1-2 new words a day! He surprises me when I hear them! I always ask who taught him that! ha! Everything he does is so amazing to me haha. He is over 50 words and he is trying real sentences. On the weekend his hat fell and he repeated. Hat,fall, head. Ha! 

He loves to match things. He will find similar looking toys and bring them together. Or if he's reading a book and sees something like a sheep, he will get his sheep toy to read along with him. He started doing this as early as 13 months that I can remember. He would bring the cat flash card over to show Zoe ha! He has a strong personality already! He's smooth and demanding. Loves to cuddle and is sweet but also very demanding. It makes us laugh but also scares us a little because as parents we need to know the balance of allowing him to get away with too much. 

He is still a great eater but gets tough sometimes because he will demand certain things he wants and has zero patience. When he wants ice cream he will repeat it a thousand times and won't give up until he gets it! 


He's always raiding the snack drawer! 

Avocados, sweet peppers, Oreos and ice cream are currently on the fave list.  

At 21 months what do you love to do? RUN the minute you learned to run you ran and still doing just that. 

I found a new big park and it's perfect for you!

For Father's Day I got the FIL, husband and baby k all matching polos. Totally cute! 

We went to my grandparents house and to my inlaws house yesterday. It was a long day but so much fun seeing everyone ;) baby k was so tired he even cried and was begging to sleep when we gave him a bath in the evening!

Summer cousin fun

Kristian is so funny when it comes to his cousin baby E, he has toddler kinda love for her, he gives her kisses and not so soft pats haha. Yesterday we went to the mall and when we put baby E in the carseat next to him in the car he yelled, OHhhh Noooo. Haha! He always looks over at her expecting her to chat back or something. He'll babble and point saying baby. I'm thinking he's asking her what she thinks she's doing in his car haha. Baby E is soooo cute! See pic below. 

The kids were so good at the mall which was great for me and my sister ;) we shopped a little at H & M. My sister and I would have these kinda dates before we had kids and spend hours in the mall. Not anymore ha! We are on baby time. 

After an hour or so we went in the family bathroom so baby E can nurse and baby k can run and get his energy out. These bathrooms are awesome. Only for mommy and babies and security lets you in. So glad they have these in most malls now. 

I started going through all of baby k's toys and filtering out the baby ones, some to give away and some to save for baby #2 and bringing out more toys for his age. Little K loves mostly bouncy balls books and blocks and his Elmo.... But so far his favorite thing to do is run run run ha!

Spring cleaning on a rainy day


Baby K and I are still sick with our colds. :( Hopefully they will be fully gone soon! 


 I've been tackling all our closets and doing some spring cleaning. We will be redoing our floors soon so I don't want to  deal with over filled closets when we do! 

I finally finished baby K's closet today. Soo much small clothing. Got me thinking that baby #2 has to be a boy ha! He will get a lot of hand me downs. It actually made me emotional seeing the tiny little newborn clothes! 

Trying to organize with a toddler is more work, baby k kept taking things out of the boxes instead of putting them in. So let's just say our closet clean up took longer than it should have haha. 


3 totes full of old clothes that can be used again. And 2 boxes of shoes. He has more shoes than I do in just 19 months ha!

A little down but fun weekend

This weekend baby K and I were sick with a cold, we still have it which makes this morning a cranky one for both of us!

We had a family BBQ yesterday which was great. The weather wasn't too bad but geez we could be having a better May! Hope it's warmer this week! 


Baby K will be 19 months this week. I can hardly believe it!!! He surprises me everyday! He is strong willed and has such a soft side too. Saturday we were both grumpy from being sick and I spoke firmly to him to stop fighting his nap. He made a pouty face and came to hug and pat my back and looked up at me with puppy eyes. Oh boy. I'm in trouble. How could I ever be upset with him! He just knows how to melt my heart! 

He is into everything and anything these days. He knows how to open our bedroom door and tries to open the other doors to go outside. He can't reach the locks yet but soon we will need to get door safety thingies! 


He never stops when he wants to learn something. He is so dedicated and persistent. He wants to go up and down the stairs alone, so every chance he gets he practices. 






My boy is growing up way too fast!!!

Santa Parade and Christmas Decor

This weekend was all about getting ready for Christmas!

We started the house decor but we are not finished just yet! We have to decorate the tree still! We bought a Fraser Fir Tree and it smells amazing!








I also ordered our Christmas cards and hopefully I can mail them out next week!

Yesterday night we stayed in decorating and playing Christmas music. We also baked apple pie. It was very festive here haha!
Today we went to the city's Santa Parade! It was sooo cold but we were all bundled up and had a great afternoon.






Now that baby K is a year older Christmas is even more fun. I'm excited to share my traditions with him every year


Hope you all had a great weekend!
