I just need to brag that my 3 and a half year old didn’t throw a single tantrum this weekend. About 5 months ago he decided he doesn’t want to nap anymore(this makes bedtime way easier but I lose my 2 hours of free time in the afternoon), so now he throws tantrums when he’s tired but he refuses to nap regardless. So we kept busy all weekend and I was worried he’d get overwhelmed but he had a blast and didn’t lose his shit about anything.

Saturday we went to this event called meet a machine where there’s a ton of different types of huge trucks and other machinery kids can go check out and go inside. Then we went to the splash pad to cool off.

Today we went haskap berry picking and he loved it, getting so excited every time he found one and got to put it in the basket. We then went to my brother in law’s for lunch and he got to play with his cousins for a while. When we got home he watched me make jam out of the berries.

It was exhausting being so busy but it was a good weekend.

    Congratulations! And don’t forget to commend him and tell him how great it was that there were no arguments, and if he felt the same? High five, and be ready for more ups and downs. ;)
