Time Changes And Kids

I'm not a big fan of time changes. They always manage to seriously mess up the good schedules we have at our house! This time change (the lose an hour one) is not so bad. The kids have been sleeping in an hour longer, however, they're now also going to bed an hour later. ugh. I love my evenings free of kids. I love the quiet time I get with my husband. When the kidlets go to bed later than normal, I miss an hour of my coveted quiet time! The upside is, they're sleeping until nearly 8am! Can't complain about that!! I've got to slowly adjust their bedtimes back to 7 for the two little ones, and 7:30 for the big one. I need my evenings! I'm okay with going to bed early, and waking up early. I prefer it to staying up late!

Last night we decided to walk over to the local A&W for some burgers. The kids had tonnes of fun walking over there. Liam is not a fan of holding hands through parking lots, but he did give in after a while. Spencer is starting to assert himself a lot more. He's also starting to back talk a lot more. That's not cool!! Usually, after a quiet but firm talking to he smartens up and is back to himself. It's worse when he's tired (obviously!)

Nolan is starting to come out of his shell a little more. His Nana and Grandpa were here over the weekend and he was much more open to the idea of someone other than his parents, holding him. Of course he reached his happy limit soon, but the fact that he let someone else touch him is a huge milestone! Go Baby Nolan!

Liam is using his words more and more every day! I love hearing his little baby babble actually slowly turn into words! He's getting really really good at stringing a few words together now too! Something that took Spencer a long while to do!

Spencer has learned about teasing. He's a big fan of pissing Liam off and then playing innocent. Shit head! We've had some good talks about it, and we've also allowed Liam to tease Spencer so that he can see how crappy it makes him feel!

Well, that's it for this Monday morning!
