Chores

Landon's Grandma Kristine is a whiz at chore charts. She made one for her kids by taking pictures of them doing the actual chore so if they were more visual learners, they could still understand what to do. Since Landon can't read I thought a picture chore chart would help him out as well.

Feed the cats (they always have food now!)

Brusha, brusha, brusha...

Shower (cheesy grin)

Read books

Clean up toys. Isn't he adorable with that baby?

Put his dishes in the dishwasher.


Put away laundry.

Landon is a happy helper and sometimes he motivates me to clean up!

Isn't he growing so much? He's over 30 pounds, tall enough to reach the lights without stretching, tall enough to unlock AND open the front door and escape, and faster than a speeding bullet.

He is a great snuggler and loves to be rocked to sleep. The other night I was putting him to bed and kissed his cheek. He said, "Tank you, mommy". Sweetheart.

We are potty training him right now, which is an adventure to say the least. All amount of bribery will not convince him to poop on the potty. But he's got peeing down.

His favorite things to do are play in the sand, ride bikes, go "bye-bye" somewhere in the car, and read books. He always has a "sword" (vacuum cleaner attachment) or a "gun" (plastic pipe) tucked into the side of his pants, or his holster. He does something funny every day and makes me laugh!

Thanks for reading,

Emily

  1. That is so cute! He is looking so big!! It sounds like Landon and Kimball would get along very well at this stage...Kimball's sword is the exact same thing! It often has to go up high because he swings it with such force. Good luck with potty training. I wish I could say some magic thing worked for Kimball and pooping. One day he just decided it was better to do it on the toilet and the battle was over. You are a great mommy!
