Five Things That Have Made Our Life As Parents Easier

February 28, 2008

We know this isn’t product related, but we thought, ‘Hey, why not?’

1.  Date night.  We have made it a habit to intentionally schedule one night a week as our night.  We get a babysitter and are gone for no more than 2-3 hours (usually dinner and coffee…but there are plenty of great sites dedicated to date nights).  This has become something we look forward to every week.  It’s a break from the crying, screaming, pulling on our legs, making bottles, etc…  It’s great.  It will usually take us 30 minutes to get our minds back in order before any real conversation begins, but, once we start talking, we realize how little we have been engaging all week.  Simply put…this is necessary time for us.

2.  Watching the kids sleep.  After a crazy and chaotic day, nothing says we can do it all over again tomorrow quite like watching our kids sleep peacefully and quietly.  For whatever reason, there is nothing more cute and heart warming than watching your babies sleep. 

3.  Shopping for groceries TOGETHER.  Two kids at a grocery store with one parent = a nightmarish situation.  Maybe your kids are better behaved, but it is impossible to walk around a grocery store and think that you will return home with all the necessary ingredients if you are by yourself.  So, most of the time, this is a weekend activity when both of us can go.  One entertains the kids, one shops.

4.  Chick-fil-a.  Yep, that’s right.  The fast food restaurant.  They have the cleanest play place in town.  It’s free, the kids love it, and you can watch them through the window while you eat the best Chicken sandwich ever. 

5.  Sign language.  One of the hardest parts of the toddler stage is the inability to communicate.  They want something, but they don’t know how to communicate with you except by grunting and pointing.  Teaching our kids sign language has bridged the gap between the time they can communicate but aren’t able to speak yet.  In addition, signing has proven advantages for the mental development of a child.  We highly encourage it.

So, what are some things that have made your life as a parent easier?  Cheers!

Cute Baby Sayings

February 26, 2008

 

Toddler Talk Tuesday

I found this list HERE and it’s hilarious.  After reading, post a funny or cute toddler saying on your blog and link it back to us.  Don’t forget to enter your info in the Mr. Linky below.  We all want to laugh at the stories.  Cheers.

A 1st grade school teacher had twenty-six students in her class.  She presented each child in her classroom the 1st half of a well-known proverb and asked them to come up with the remainder of the proverb. It’s hard to believe these were actually done by first graders. Their insight may surprise you. While reading, keep in mind that these are first-graders, 6-year-olds, because the last one is a classic!

Don’t change horses - until they stop running.

Strike while the - bug is close.

It’s always darkest before - Daylight Saving Time.

Never underestimate the power of - termites.

You can lead a horse to water but - How?

Don’t bite the hand that - looks dirty.

No news is - impossible

A miss is as good as a - Mr.

You can’t teach an old dog new - Math

If you lie down with dogs, you’ll - stink in the morning.

Love all, trust - Me.

The pen is mightier than the - pigs.

An idle mind is - the best way to relax

Where there’s smoke there’s - pollution.

Happy the bride who - gets all the presents.

A penny saved is - not much.

Two’s company, three’s - the Musketeers.

Don’t put off till tomorrow what - you put on to go to bed.

Laugh and the whole world laughs with you, cry and - You have to blow your nose.

There are none so blind as - Stevie Wonder.

Children should be seen and not - spanked or grounded.

If at first you don’t succeed - get new batteries.

You get out of something only what you - See in the picture on the box

When the blind lead the blind - get out of the way.

A bird in the hand - is going to poop on you.
