The End of Paternity Leave

Christien went back to work yesterday. That was a quick, and fun 6 weeks. Yesterday was kinda hard. Trying to get ourselves into a routine with just me and two kidlets is a bit intimidating. Some days will be better then others. Happy to say that today was a good day. Potty training and all. Yes, that's right. Potty training Reid. I'm not totally sure how it's going. Christien took the reigns on this one. I'm too consumed with baby Nolan. So they did the whole potty day a few weeks ago. Timer on for every 15 minutes, and to the potty whether he liked it or not. Lots of sugary treats for rewards. We really have to stay on top of it cause it we don't ask or take him to the potty, the we are bound to have an accident. I'm so overwhelmed with doing this by myself that I had him in pull ups today. Too many accidents over the last few days. After school he went back into underwear and o accidents. Plus he even asked/told me he needed to go. That's huge. Although I think he was just wanting the chocolates I was letting him have after each pee. Oh well. I'm just taking this all one day at a time. I remember when Christien went back to work after Reid was born. He was only 10 days old and I was beyond overwhelmed. Everyday I would wake up and make a little tick on the white board counting down the days till Christien got home. I definitely feel better this time. Although it's a very different story with two munchkins,
