casa de fruta

 

casa de fruta playgroup.

 swings. carousal watching. train ride. duck and peacocks to see. turtles and fish in the water. it was an exciting morning. if you throw in a nice melt down on the way home, i'd say we had ourselves quite an adventure. i forgot to take pictures of the 'gold mining' gem finding we did.

 we are slowly doing toilet 'training' Caleb goes every night before bath and now he goes every morning when he puts on his clothes for the day...i'm trying to let it be natural and 'child lead' more than just a constant every moment of the day training thing (but i'm wondering if I should dedicate more time to it?.)...i like what this article has to say about it (learning to use the toilet).
what worked for you? we have done underwear the past two days but caleb only wants to wear them in the morning time...I'm wondering if we should just spend a long weekend being really consistent? hm...never really thought too much on this particular topic....plus adding a crawling child to the equation has been interesting...i've resorted to putting lucas in the bathtub while caleb goes (although he goes by himself most the time, but i like to be in there sometimes to make sure everything stays in one place...if ya know what i mean!) so many people keep asking if he is 'potty trained' i would rather go on his readiness and i do not want to feel the pressure to have him 'toilet trained by a certain age' but i'm also wondering if maybe we should get 'serious' about it and dedicate more time to the matter now? i feel as though i've been really relaxed about the whole thing but am wondering if I have been too relaxed? each child is different and will go in their own time. I am going to keep going with his feelings of readiness and I know slow and steady is just fine.
