------------------------
Wake up between 7:30 - 9am
Change diaper and maybe try to use the potty. If she says no, its ok.
She likes to drink a sippy of milk and watch Mickey Mouse Club House in the morning. She can watch two episodes if you are getting ready or making breakfast. For breakfast she usually doesn't eat much but does enjoy ALL breakfast foods. If you make her cereal she likes cinnamon toast crunch with very little milk, or she spills! Then we get up and dressed for the day.
.
During the day she likes to play outside mostly. She likes chalk, paint, water activities, walks, and babies.
She has not wanted to try potty training lately and I'm not pushing it. If she plays outside for a while and gets too hot I try to get her to come in and cool down while watching a show or reading books. This helps settle her down and get ready for nap time too.
Nap time is usually between 1:30 and 2:30. It depends on how her day is going. She will only take ONE nap a day now. If she falls asleep after 2:30 don't let her sleep past 4 or she will be a bear that night. For naps she may want to lay down with you in mine or your bed. I lay with her until she falls asleep and then I sneak out. If you want, you can prob just put her in her pac n play and she would be fine. She may cry for a minute but its ok. Just depends on what you need to get done.
If she is naughty she can be put in time out. I usually put her back against the wall and tell her to stay while in time out. She does not get binkie while in time out. (she will ask) After 30 seconds I ask her if she is ready to be done with time out. If she says yes, she needs to stop crying and I explain to her why she was in time out and give her a hug. Sometimes this goes more smoothly then others. If she really throws a fit you can ask her to go to her room and "cool down".
Lunch and dinner- Don't be worried if she does not eat much. But try not to give snacks after 3 so she will eat a better dinner. She is still kinda allergic to ranch dressing. She is allowed to eat it, but be sure to wipe her hands and face quickly after. It will be red but it fades quickly and does not bother her. She likes steak and chicken but still in pretty small bites.
She likes to eat, dried blueberries, kale chips, cucumber slices in ranch, chips and guac, cheese sticks, apple sauce pouches, frozen go gurts, regular chips, apple juice, whole milk, green beans, steamed broccoli, pizza. Try to limit the sweets but she can still have some, shes almost to the bribe stage where if she eats more of the "good food" she can have a sucker or something.
BED TIME - She takes a bath every other night, unless otherwise needed. I blow dry her hair while she brushes her teeth. She will do it herself and then I get a "turn". Then new diaper and jammies. If she has a red bum, I usually put a good layer of cream on her. She will want a milk and a show. We cuddle around 8pm and watch "mommy show" which is usually the food network. No cartoons or madi shows. Something "boring" and calm so she wont be scared. Just before we go to bed, we say prayers where she sits on your lap and kinda cuddles you while you say them. Then I ask if shes ready for bed and she says "two minutes" so i let her watch a couple more minutes of tv and at a commercial break, take her to bed. Sound machine on, I lay her in her bed, pull the blanket over and say good night. Lately she has not cried, but if she does give her at least 10 minutes. She is usually pretty good. Put a full milk bottle in the fridge.
DURING THE NIGHT she will wake up (sorry) If its before 5am I usually let her cry it out but things are different when we stay there because we are in the room. If she wakes at 10 -11:30 let her really cry it out. When she wakes up (between 3-5) I go get her milk bottle THEN go get her. You can just lay down with her on our bed and give her the milk. Dont turn on the light or anything. She will drink a little or a lot and then hand you the bottle, want her binkie, and fall back asleep. This may happen again at like 6. Give her the rest of the bottle again and follow above routine. Then she wakes up for the day. If you're still asleep she will smack you on the cheek to wake you up.
