Money money money money! (sing it it sounds better with a tune)

So recently u felt Korlen needed the opportunity to start understanding money and buying things with money. There is so much to be said about this too! First off he learns hard work and patience. His task was to throw away dirty diapers. I didn't want to pay him for chores such as cleaning up toys. Things he should be going anyways and not rewarded for except for the joy in his heart I know all 3 yr olds get when they clean up their shiz! He also had to wait till little by little he got more money. I mean we go through a lot of diapers but it still takes time to add up. Then there's self respect and pride because he himself accomplished this. And gets to choose his reward. And then of course everything that comes along with understanding that the whole world runs off money and money runs off the work you do. And it you don't have enough money well tough crap! Right? Anyways he finally got enough for a shopping trip and I was brilliant enough to document these precious momen...

Momma didn't raise no fool!

So I think Tahlae has motion sickness. The last two times we have traveled to st george he has projectile vomited all over the place! Über nasty! This last time most of it got all over his brand new car seat. And since he had been drinking milk the whole way down im sure you can just imagine what it was he threw up! The smell was atrocious! Anyways it needed to be cleaned and I figured I'd clean korlens 2 yr old car seat as well! This morning I got them put back on in the living room an the boys thought it was so funny to have their car seats in the house they insisted on being strapped in. And after that I insisted that I had forgotten how to unbuckle them! Needless to say! I got A LOT done this morning! Genius? Well yes I guess so!!!!

To nap or not to nap that is the question

Oh dear saints per service this learning never ends now does it. Once you get comfortable with one schedule your child up and changes and you must start all over again. And let's not even get started on figuring out the differences from one child to another! Korlen, now 3, is going to be the death of me. Honestly the day he turned 3 my life changed! He instantly turned into a very defiant child! What is with this sudden challenge in/with authority! One day he was the most obedient child that I actually barged about the next he woke up, was officially 3, and is a different person lol! With that said let turn to the issue at hand! NAPS! I mean really does it have to be so complicated. Here are my options. No naps means I don't get to nap either and I have to spend the entire day with him ( I'm sure that makes me sound like a terrible person but honestly every waking moment with one person let a lone a toddler that only wants to push my buttons is a little more then I can ...
