The 14 month-old joins the 3 year-old at daycare next week, as I get ready to return to work at the end of the month.

End of an era. It's been great spending so much time with the boys, but I am looking forward to interacting more with fully grow humans. When they are both home on Tuesday and Thursday I'm fighting for my life. Especially if the weather is shit.

And while they have not walked in on us, the baby has impeccable timing with cries from his crib.

Learn me on potty training or send me videos to learn me
I'm late but...

Get one of those potty chairs that play music every time they pee and they'll use it 100 times a day.

Let them run around naked with the potty chair in the room so they don't have a diaper and they will use the toilet.

But the biggest helper was daycare. Going on a schedule when all their friends went was the big game changer. Both kids fully potty trained before 3.

My kid is fucking ON one.

Last night, she got out of bed, came into our room, and thwarted multiple attempts at sexy time. Finally it seemed like she was actually out. We resumed. Mid-nut, the door flies open and we kind of collapse in a heap. She goes "DADDY WHY YOU ON MOMMY?". Tried saying "I was just giving Mommy hugs", and she kept going "why you on top her?". Finally got her to sleep and nothing was mentioned this AM. Likely more traumatic for me knowing my daughter may have seen my vinegar strokes.

Wake up this morning, and the house is way too cold (it's -9 outside right now). I frantically check the furnace, which is running but blowing cool-ish air. Nearly text my buddy who does HVAC in town (keep in mind it's like 4:30 AM) to get on their work list for the day, when I get a hair to go look at the thermostat. The heat function had been shut off. I turn the heat back on, and everything works as normal. The thermostat is located about 2' above the back of our living room couch. A place that my daughter has been hanging out and walking around a ton lately.

TLDR; 2 year old free to a good home.
My uncle told a story of a good friend and his wife who had a 2-3yo. They were going at it (under the covers) one evening when the kid was supposed to be asleep. Man was on top. Didn't hear the kid had come into the room until he suddenly jumped on dad and yelled, "Giddyup!"

She signed! She got a full ride to play D1 college volleyball. Me and the wife popped a bottle of champagne knowing we have a little extra walk around money. Here is the aforementioned athlete!

 

 

 

WOW that's an incredible accomplishment for your daughter! I hope she never has to face the Horns so you won't have to cheer against your daughter🤘

Funny you shouod say that. The number one recruit in my daughter's class is a kid who signed with Texas. The school my daughter is going to will always be barely getting in the tournament so the likelihood that she faces Texas is pretty good. My daughter has played this kid many many times in both club and school ball. The last time they played each other my kid hit .429 against them and it came down to the last set but we lost. That girl is 6'4 and an absolute monster. My kid looks short out there at 5'10-5'11.

For some reason I thought your daughter had signed last year?  Was that just the offer?

Probably.  That's what happened to my daughter.  She committed last year, but just signed a few weeks ago.  She's a '26 class, and the '27's are almost full.  It's moving so fast these days, and the portal isn't helping.
