Our night routine is pretty much like this---I take Logan up at 730. He fusses a little so I stay upstairs until he is asleep. At 8, Eric brings Kylie upstairs, brushes teeth, and puts her to sleep. Tonight, Logan went to sleep pretty fast and Eric was watching something on TV so I went downstairs to put Kylie to bed. We go to the bathroom and I pull out the toothbrush. She immediatly starts screaming Noooooooo and crying. I had to call Eric upstairs because I do not know the ritual of brushing teeth. Apparently, you first sit on the counter, attempt to turn off the light and then turn the water on yourself (no help from Mommy or Daddy). Daddy brushes teeth and then wipes off hands because hands are messy (repeat this ten times) and then you kiss yourself in the mirror and go night night. I did not know any of this. Good thing I got a lesson tonight since Eric has a work thing tomorrow night. Toddlers are so ritualistic.
Not much new to report in the Johnson household. Logan is FINALLY on a sleep schedule. I know that could change at any moment but for now he is taking an afternoon nap at the same time as Kylie and both are going to sleep at 8pm. He has adjusted well. Both kids are in good health too.
I'm looking forward to the holidays this year. Kylie is still a little young, but I think I'm going to let her help me bake cookies and such for Santa this year. She pretty much hates Santa, but it will be a fun tradition to start. Logan is growing so fast. I accidentally typed fat instead of fast...both apply. He is now eating first stage baby foods, and loves everything, even the green ones.
This year has been full of changes for us, new baby, new stay at home mom, Kylie is a new big sister, etc etc....but it has been a good year.....probably our best yet as a family.

I love that Kylie kisses herself in the mirror. No lack of self-esteem issues for her!
