Going to be a Great Winter!

He seems to like the "french fries" (skis together going fast) but has no need for "pizza" (ski tips together like a pizza to slow you down)!  Hopefully he'll figure that out soon.  Otherwise, he's having a good time!

Life is good and maybe this is one reason why...

Ch ch ch changes...


Bennett is no longer taking naps during the day. He's been great lately, but the past few weeks have been quite a transition for the 3 of us. Actually, make that 4 - Logan has started to get very freaked out when "over-tired Bennett" makes an appearance just before bedtime. But we have persevered and now have a handle on the new schedule of no nap and early supper/early bedtime.

This was the first week of no nap:

 
He fell asleep on the floor while we were playing "Mama Lion/Baby Lion".

He's gotten used to the new schedule and is no longer falling asleep on random floors during the day. AND he is no longer putting up a 2-hour fight before bedtime. Lights out at 7:30 makes us a lot happier than 10:30 lights out!

Hooray for no naps!

There have just been a whole slew of changes this fall - new school, new backpack, new lunchbox, new friends, new big boy bed, new sheets, new nightlight, new pooping habits (I'm talkin' bout poopin' on the potty, ya'll! Can I get a woop woop!), new bedtime/wake-up time, and new hip-hop/tumbling class (which means new dance moves each day).

Change is good.
