My 2 Babies

JoJo or as you would say it "My name is Josephine Ohl Hai Tang". I'm not going to sugar coat it...you have become a pain in the butt! terrible threes? You whine about everything we ask you to do, after whining comes crying. Sometimes your bedtime can't come soon enough, but you are still the funniest, sweetest, Babae and only a pain 20% of the time.  3 more months till you turn 4! Here are some current highlights:
1. You just switched over from the crib to a big girls bed. Yeah, it's hard to believe that you never tried climbing out of your crib.
2. You love princesses. Elsa and Anna, Mulan, Sopia the First, etc.
3. Your an expert when it comes to navigating YouTube. Somehow you always find show that involves the above princesses.
3. You always want to wear dresses.

 Favorite blue dress. You only like dresses that work with twirling.

Anna Dress. Let you wear it out because it was your birthday.

4. You absolutely love your "little Bro".
5. We still have to feed you at dinner or else you wouldn't eat too much.
6. Your best friend from school is Peyton "Grace" Swisher.
7. After story time and right before lights out you always want to play Footsie Monster. Everyone takes turns stomping their way to the bedroom and tickle and eat the others footsie in bed.

You tell me I'm your best friend and I truely believe you mean it with all your heart, which makes me the happiest girl in the world or as you would say "kindom". I hope this will always remain true.

No More PACI!!!

For the past 2 nights you went to bed without your paci. Today I sent you to school without your paci for nap time. Walking into school this morning we told all your teachers and even the front desk receptionist, Kacey. They were all very excited for you. I could tell you were so proud of yourself. This is huge! Just 2 weeks ago you were going to bed with 2 pacis, one to suck on and the other to rub your nose with. Man, you loved those things.

We have been telling you that big girls don't sleep with pacis, and we'll get you a "big dress" aka princess dress if you don't need your pacis anymore. Your reply "like Elsa's, with a cape". You are very into the movie Frozen,  and Sofia the First, you're a girly, girly. You like your hair braided sometimes like Elsa, with one braid and sometimes like Anna, with 2 braids.

I'm one proud mom. This, to me is a reflection of your easy going nature.

Sweetest Ba Bae

Today we went swimming at the Hyatt by Ba Ba's office. One of the perks of working at a fancy office building, is having access to the nice pool. I took my wedding bands off to apply more sunblock and forgot to put them back on and left.

I was telling Ba Ba what happend and you overheard and asked "What happen mama?" You asked about 10 times and I explained that I took them off to put on sunblock and forgot to put them back on. After "10th time" I told you, I didn't want to talk about it anymore because I'm sad. That night like clockwork you wanted to go "pooppies" after we put you down for bed, so after taking you to the bathroom to go "pooppies", told you I had a really nice day and we may go swimming again tomorrow. You replied "mama we'll find ring and you'll be happy". That was over the top sweet. You seem to always remember what we talked about earlier in the day and polish the night off with something relating. You are so smart. Stay sweet my JoJo Beans.

Ba Ba usually sets a glass of water next to yours, on top of the nightstand, just in case we need it when reading you bedtime stories. He forgot the other night and you pointed out that I didn't have water. I jokingly said "that's not nice of Ba Ba" and you in turn offered me yours. After putting you down you called out "pooppies" so you can go and use the potty. It's funny that you always poop in your diaper and then you call out "pooppies" and then go to the potty to finish pooping. Ba Ba took you to the potty, so you can finish up, and I guess you kept repeating "that's not nice Daddy" and he didn't know why. You are a funny one!

JoJo and Z-Besties

Potty Time

Jo Beans, is potty trained and the best part is we didn't really even try! She started telling us that she needed to pee, so we went with it. We bought her a Costco sized, individually wrapped, Fruit Chews as "special treats" and new as Jo would call it "underpants".

First Pee in the Potty

Today you said "potty" and we went over to your potty and you peeded in the potty. so proud of you!
