Carys, my almost 17 month old, is getting a big kick out of peeing in the toilet. I'm like, what....are you kidding me! One kid at a time here! I'm still dealing with my three year old, Caiden!Wed, 02 Jul 2008 11:12:46 -0400Familyhttp://www.wral.com/lifestyles/family/blogpost/3141155/http://www.wral.com/lifestyles/family/blogpost/2955315/It amazes me every day, how much my 4 3/4 year old daughter, Campbell, acts like a 15 year old.  She's smart as a whip and talks like it too.  Just the other day, my 3 year old son Caiden was bugging her, imagine that.  And Campbell said, "Stop it Caiden, or I'll eat you for breakfast!"  She said she heard it on Spiderman.  Lovely, just lovely.  Thu, 29 May 2008 10:18:06 -0400Familyhttp://www.wral.com/lifestyles/family/blogpost/2955315/http://www.wral.com/lifestyles/family/blogpost/2912809/The Spiderman, spiderweb sticker reward poster thing, was a huge......disappointment.  Caiden got several little stickers for going #1 on the toilet.  Not a single big sticker for going #2.  He just keeps going in his underwear.  One night, we woke up to find him with his diaper off and poo spread around his room!  Nothing says good morning, like the sight and scent of your son's excrement spread around his room! Tue, 20 May 2008 10:09:16 -0400Familyhttp://www.wral.com/lifestyles/family/blogpost/2912809/http://www.wral.com/lifestyles/family/blogpost/2894917/Whoever said potty training boys was harder than girls, put it mildly.  My son Caiden turned three last month.  He remains un-potty trained.  My daughter Campbell was completely trained by the time she was 2 1/2, even over-night!  My son, not so much.Fri, 16 May 2008 10:30:49 -0400Familyhttp://www.wral.com/lifestyles/family/blogpost/2894917/http://www.wral.com/lifestyles/family/blogpost/2436281/Bad words. Thu, 14 Feb 2008 10:47:52 -0500Familyhttp://www.wral.com/lifestyles/family/blogpost/2436281/http://www.wral.com/lifestyles/family/blogpost/2069092/The differences between girls and boys are starting to become crystal clear.  My son is now 2 1/2 and I think his testosterone level is rising. Tue, 20 Nov 2007 10:27:56 -0500Familyhttp://www.wral.com/lifestyles/family/blogpost/2069092/http://www.wral.com/lifestyles/family/blogpost/1971656/It's started.  I enrolled the kids, the two oldest, in their first "activity."  I've kinda been holding out because I know once it starts, it's gonna be constant for the next 18 years.Sat, 27 Oct 2007 17:06:26 -0400Familyhttp://www.wral.com/lifestyles/family/blogpost/1971656/http://www.wral.com/lifestyles/family/blogpost/1883659/I think the happiest moments of my day are when I pick up my kids from daycare.  Regardless of whatever they're doing, their faces light up in a huge smile when they see me.  Nothing can duplicate that feeling.  It's pure joy!Tue, 02 Oct 2007 10:29:12 -0400Familyhttp://www.wral.com/lifestyles/family/blogpost/1883659/http://www.wral.com/lifestyles/family/blogpost/1834437/I'm constantly amazed at how smart kids are these days.  Take my 4 year old, Campbell for instance.  She was drawing an alligator, but it had 6 legs.  My husband said, "Your alligator has 6 legs.  They only have 4."   Without skipping a beat, Campbell drew 2 more legs and announced, "This is an octigator!"   I've gotta say, I was pretty impressed. Wed, 19 Sep 2007 10:34:51 -0400Familyhttp://www.wral.com/lifestyles/family/blogpost/1834437/
