Ava went with Jake to Bismarck today, so Hyrum and I got to spend a lot of time together–eating bowls of oranges, reading books, pulling all the clothes out of my dresser, laying on the couch, and jumping in piles of pillows on my bed… Obviously we weren’t together the whole time (my bedroom floor makes that clear), but I love that I can still hear his little voice in my head–“Wook a me Mom!” –And the way his eyes got all squinty when he jumped ’cause he was smiling so big. I just love being with him.
Last week we had warmer days, melting snow, and lots of outside playtime. The kids loved it (and I did too!) And between all the puddles, snow, and potty training, Hyrum was always running out of dry pants!
Now the temperatures have chilled, new snow has fallen, and Hyrum is back in diapers. And I’m totally ok with that because there are even more good things to come! My laundry is less, spring is just around the corner, and all is well when I hear Hyrum say, “I peed.” It’s great. (We gave it 3 weeks and as much as I wanted him to be, he just wasn’t ready. And that’s ok too.) #mamanotes
