We've been enjoying some nice, sunny weather so Rock quickly turned into a free-range little boy. He likes escaping the chicken coupe that is our house and roaming the open range of our backyard.
Rock and Ryker get along better all the time. Ryker loves attention from Rock.
Rock just has to sit in front of Ryker and he's happy.
But he's not opposed to kicking back and just chilling when Rock is outside. That's cool too.
A group of women in the ward walked over to a local park and let the kids just go nuts. Rock liked running around free of all fetters.
They had these cool racing cars and Rock did some laps at a record pace.
He even let other guys from the ward in on the racing awesomeness.
So, Super Nanny has this little technique for getting kids to sleep in their big boy beds. All you do is put them in bed and tell them you love them, then when they get out you put them back and say I love you, then the next time you just say good night and then every subsequent time you don't acknowledge them and just put them back in bed. People have told us that it works and they kid will usually get up about 20-25 times. Well, I guess little Rock is just more persistent than other kids because it took him about 3,264 times before he finally fell asleep close to his bed.
We rewarded him the next morning with some blueberry-strawberry-banana-orange juice breakfast. He didn't like it, but his alter-ego Mario sure did.

The boys are adorable! I can't believe how chunky Ryker is getting! And I love that our popcorn bowl is in your cupboard...lol along with our pink spoon...:D
ReplyDeleteLove those boys, but I feel for Rock. I'm hoping he is doing better. I'm not seeing any updates on the sleeping front.
ReplyDeleteWhat? Where do you see the pink spoon? We did take it on accident but I don't see it in any of the pictures. Do you have X-Ray vision Marissa?
