I have a two year old!

So, I went to bed on Saturday night with an almost 18 month old. I woke up Sunday night with a two year old. I thought Sunday was just a bad day, but every day since she's been the same! Whining, upset if she doesn't get her way, she throws herself down on the stomach if she's mad. The whining is pretty annoying. But the temper tantrums on her stomach are just about the cutest thing ever. Of course, I never let her see me smiling about them.

This morning, she was eating her banana when she got into her seat and I had to take a picture. I love her more than life itself, really. It is just frustrating sometimes when I wish she used her words but she just whines. Or immediately starts crying the second something isn't going her way. This is just her new phase! Luckily, I have a hubby that's been through this twice already. He is really good to say, "Jenna, just ignore her when she is throwing her fits! Don't even look at her." It's hard to just ignore it, but really, it's the best way. I don't want her learning that's a way to get what she wants.

I hope everyone has a great Tuesday!

Guess Who Has A New Potty???

This girl!! Jason and I took Avery to Target tonight to find a potty chair. We didn't know what kind to get. When we got there, she loved the Sesame Street one. It's the kind that sits on the toilet, not an actual chair. I've heard both reasonings on a chair and a pad for the real toilet. On one hand, the chairs are little and easier for them to sit on and they aren't scary to flush. On the other, the pad doesn't require you to have to clean out a chair and they teach kids to sit on the big potty from the get go. What it really came down to was that we just don't have a big bathroom at all, so keeping an actual chair in the bathroom would have been hard. So we got the pad. It has a little hook that you attach to the tank, so you can hang the pad on it. I love this! I have no intention of actually potty training Avery full out, just yet. I don't think she is ready. But I have heard it's good to have one that they can practice sitting on and get u...

Some Changes...

We've been going through a bit of a transition at the Whitehead household the last month or so. I haven't really talked too much about it because I wasn't ready, to be honest. It's just a lot of change and I've been trying to figure it out in my head. As of three weeks ago last Friday, I am no longer a full time work out of home employee. I can't believe I just said that. It's been the plan for several months now for me to go into real estate and it was always assumed I'd be doing that part time, while keeping my full time job. Plans kind of changed when Jason got his promotion. He'd always has a job that allowed him a lot of flexibility. In sales, especially after you've been in a position for a while, it just sort of happens that way. He could take Avery to daycare and pick her up, he could take her to doctor's appointments, he could even do chores around the house in the afternoon, while I was at work. I had some flexibi...

Just a little bathroom project....

Raise your hand if this is what your bathroom looks like after every round of baths at your house????
