Seeking God Knows What

Widget needs a haircut or at least a trim. I had been doing it myself but I’m thinking it is time to get a slightly more professional cut as it needs some shaping. She won’t keep barrettes or pigtails in and it is getting into her eyes.

She has completely stopped showing any interest in the potty, so I am not even going to try to train her. I may even hold off until next spring unless she shows a serious interest because of all the clothing a Michigan winter requires. I would rather do it in the summer anyway where she can wear her bathing suit and run around outside.

I’m also thinking about when to transition her to a toddler bed. I found wooden one I liked at Kmart for $50. We aren’t in a place where we can afford to buy a twin bed, so we are opting for the toddler bed first. She isn’t climbing out of her crib or even trying to climb out and I am more than a little concerned about nocturnal ramblings around the house when we do switch. And we’ve been having some problems with bedtime as in she is throwing a fit when going to bed whereas before she would just lay down and go to sleep. Actually, she has been very difficult with her, um, independent streak with everything lately, not just bedtime. She is exhausting at times, really most of the time. My mother commented on how worn out I must get after she had her for essentially three days while I was in the hospital.

I suppose I’m never going to get any housework or laundry done if I continue to spend all morning writing this blog post. And it’s raining. Again.
