Hold your hearts everyone, he has a "girl"… Yes, my nearly 11yo baby has his first girlfriend and went from Minecraft (game) and fidget spinners to wanting "tips" from his amused/sad/proud mom as to what he's supposed to do with this girl, who is pretty intense for a child, she's already talking marriage :confused:

Well, a girl like that wants a boy who is sweet with children, who can (will) cook, clean and can fix things. You can use that to your advantage @sumi ! :gig

Oh I'm taking advantage, trust me ;) Giving him lot of "tips" and suddenly the battles to get him to change into clean clothes, clean himself up etc is a thing of the past. All I have to say is "You can't go see her in a dirty shirt!" ;)

He's been a handful lately.:hitI'm just hoping he'll actually go down for a nap today.

Seems promising, huge fit to change his diaper, but he wanted to sit in the rocking to be sung to. Still humming... I hear heavy breathing. I think I'll be able to transfer him to the bed soon. Oh sweet freedom for an hour lol.

Oh I miss naptime. I'm lucky if I get my daughter to chill out and have quiet time!

Haha! I'm doing naptime now. Ending up to be work than not and I might give up.

DS10 has been more ADHDy than usual which usually means he's not getting enough sleep. DS2 is fighting sleep. They share a bedroom. DS10 is impulsive and intrusive. It's a zoo. I'm in the guest room next door hoping for them to settle and getting up every minute or so to separate them.
