@tombruzzo@hexbear.netNow we just need to get him back to sleeping in the cot
I'm currently listening to "How to Talk so Little Kids Will Listen", and it's pretty good. A lot about validating their feelings. Seems pretty good so far, we're having some trouble with our 3 year old and I think a lot of it is she needs more attention than she's getting right now.
Our Toddler decided to have the worst fucking attitude this past week. He's also gotten really good at getting out of his crib and won't go to bed. He used to just go right down to sleep but I guess that era is over.
Mine has started doing these wild rock climbing style moves to boost himself up onto stuff

Going to have to take the side off the crib real soon so he doesn't try to climb out, but I'm wondering if that newfound freedom is going to make putting him down at bedtime more difficult
Crib side taking off is something I have planned for this week. It's futile to leave it on if he's just gonna climb out. It's safer for him too.
What we did for our oldest is get a smart bulb and lamp and have it set for like blue for "stay in bed" and orange for "it's morning and time to get up". It mostly worked for the oldest but our toddler is also kind of a terrorist so idk how well it will work.
Today is the kind of day EVERYONE in the house needs a nap. 😴
