Today was my little boys 3rd birthday, so we drove down to the San Antonio Zoo for the morning and then spent the afternoon at his favorite playground The dirt bike is a new toy that he carried around the entire day!

That was his first time on a carousel and it was a huge hit!

Too hot for any denim today lol

This donut vacuum turned 1 last Sunday

I love donuts.

[GraemeE]

Turns out the amount of teeth you need to annihilate them is 5-6

[Danimal506]

@Matt

This donut vacuum turned 1 last Sunday turns 49 this year (wild guess, feel free to insert correct age)

[Matt]

Right and right.

Our early version chromecast died today so now we have to actually parent the 1-2 kids who wake up first from 5-6am......

@GraemeE

My Apple TV box and subscriptions serve me well during those hours when I’m still sleeping

My boys turned 7 and 9 over the last couple of weeks. Since last year, I've made it a tradition to all go on a week long holiday (we went to Marocco last year - I think I posted some pictures)
This year, we went to Ibiza. The week went by like crazy, and I got filled with so many emotions I could barely keep track.
They are still my baby boys, but I can see and feel them growing older. I still put my 7y old on my shoulders during walks every time he asks me too because I know that one day, it'll be the last time. Same with bedtime stories and all the other little things.

@GraemeE man, I look forward to the day my little guys are self sufficient enough to even babysit themselves with TV while we sleep in. We’re still in the crack of dawn, get their little asses up, wipe those asses, and try to feed them while getting screamed at for giving them a blue bowl instead of a yellow one phase

[GraemeE]

@chillmonroe typically one of us still has to be "up" ( turns out 5 year olds have shitty judgment/impulse control if left to their own) but if we can stream a show we can be in zombie mode with tea or coffee until we actually wake up

[chillmonroe]

@GraemeE ah. Yeah we do that for sure. Four and two year old here. Although the oldest requires Transformers (from the 1980s only, dad win right there) and the youngest requires Ms Rachel. So we either set em up in different rooms or put Transformers on the big screen and give the little one the phone while we make breakfast and caffeinate

@chillmonroe said in Parenting:

Ms Rachel

Simultaneously the best and the worst

Works like a tranquilizer dart though

[Matt]

I miss watching Sprout with the kids. I don’t think it’s still Sprout but those shows had the cutest hosts...

[chillmonroe]

Tryna get these boys off the TV now the weather’s warming up a bit. There’s a little lake in our backyard and we have a paddle boat. Took it out with my little homie yesterday, first time of the year. Gonna get out there again here in a bit. Good times

[GraemeE]

@Matt I'm noticing a trend here

First Caillous mom and now this

[Matt]

I stand by what I said.
