work and slight frustration.




well, a week or so ago, I took Savannah outside, and tried to get my flower beds going... instead I
chased savannah all over the yard.
tripped over two hoses, graciously draped across the yard by savannah
went inside to get a sippy... three times.
ran down a floppy sun hat that wouldn't say in place.
gave up and gave miss banana cakes a ride in the wagon instead.

can you say frustrating... I need some help...how do any of you out there, get anything done with a toddler.
i mean i have projects left and right I want to get done, but i just end up frustrated instead, with projects left and right... half done.
tell me your secrets. :0)

You've got to find a way to get them to help you. Make it fun and find simple jobs they can help with. Oh! and PATIENCE! PATIENCE! PATIENCE! Good luck!

If you find any secrets that work, please let ME know!! I'm still trying to figure that one out. Some days go really well, then we have other days that just seem to fall apart. I know one day I'm going to miss it, though. =)

She's such a cute little thing though... My trick is called NAP TIME. Also bigger brother and sister help out a ton. Sometimes if I get Averie started on her own project (like puzzles, coloring, destroying something I don't care too much about...) she will let me do stuff. It's just a difficult age for mommy productivity. My advice is to just enjoy her. They get big so fast and suddenly they don't want to play with mom anymore.

You could always let her hang out with Auntie Katie for a while...(hint!) Or, Auntie Katie will come and help you.
