Tree climbing

So we are apparently in the age of every tree must be climbed for H. Not necessarily a standing tree (though those are fair game too!) but any thing of decent size on the ground MUST be scrambled upon.

And of course E must follow😅 and for her they’re always a motorcycle 🤷‍♀️

Spring biking

 Best bike accessories for a kiddo? A basket! Bells break. Much to the devastation of the child who just got it and “loved that bell!!”. But a basket lets you put all the mittens and layers they want to shed during spring inside instead of carrying them yourself!

Mom-tessori moments: topponcinno

Image
K is our third baby now to use the Montessori topponcinnos that I made in my ages 0-3 training. They are spectacular for helping hold little one steadily with just one arm while to do a multitude of tasks. Or for transferring them out of your arms and not having the new, cold surface startle them wide awake. And of course for helping big siblings hold the baby. However I feel like the most classic use is as a table decoration, aka the baby centerpiece🤣 Oh and just putting baby down wherever you feel like it for just a moment to attend to another crisis. Only to have them be super happy and right in the main thoroughfare of your older children’s right pain…. Yep of course that’s where she wanted to be as wrecking ball big sister is winding up for the evening🤦‍♀️ I just keep telling myself that time siblings have survived each other for centuries already…. Right?

Tip: visiting the popular playground

 There’s a few playgrounds in town that I would love to visit with my kids more often. But unfortunately everyone else has the same idea. My advice? Go during breakup season. All the fair weather families are still just getting the idea that is nice enough to be outside while my children are actively shedding mittens and questioning their jackets. things are WAY less crowded. We hadn’t been to this particular place for almost a year so it was fun to see how much more confident and capable H had become since the last time. Plus the up side of going to a playground once in a while is the chance to sit down on a real bench to try and nurse the screaming baby that was supposed to be napping 🤦‍♀️🤷‍♀️
