I Can Do It Myself!

Both Caleb and Kendall are going though a new 'I can do it myself' stage. This is always a double edge sword...there are great learning and things about it, but it can be very frustrating at the same time!

Kendall wants to do her seat belt on her own. This will be great once she gets it, but right now it is very hit and miss. When it is a miss Kendall becomes very crabby! The good news is, that she has gotten it a few times in the last couple of days...so I think she will have this mastered soon.

Caleb now wants to do his own hair. This morning he found the spray bottle with water and a bit of conditioner that I use to do their hair. He did it...of course it looked like he just got out of the shower when he was finished. The best part was he then tried to do our dog's hair, both spraying and combing Flash. She is such a good job and just sat there happily.

I love when my kids hit these new milestones, but the weeks before they truly get it can be so frustrating! Hopefully both of them will figure out their new skills soon.
