on-going battle



I have an on-going battle with Carter that is in full swing. 
He officially HATES getting dressed.
Having his diaper changed.
 and especially Lotion.

I never realized how hard changing a diaper of an almost two year old would be.
He is one slippery booger, and is always getting away from me.
I need more arms, because two is not cutting it. 
Getting him dressed consist of me holding him down with my legs while trying to get clothes on him.
He is absolutely crazy.

As hard as is it getting him to put clothes on nothing holds a candle to lotion. 
Carter has had skin problems ever sense he was just tiny, and the Doctor told us about special Lotion for eczema. 
So I have to put this yucky lotion on him two times a day to keep his breakouts under control.
If you were standing outside my door, you would think I was beating him.
So if you walk by my house and hear a bloody murder scream, it's just Carter getting lotion. 

The other day I gave up fighting Carter to get his pants on, so this is what I got.

 In the meantime, were still fighting daily, to get dressed.


Forts

Packing has officially begun around here. I feel like I am doing way more damage than good.
I have some major ADD going on, so I have about 10 piles all over my house,
with nothing done.
Anyways, because of the packing there has been way to much TV on and Carter is not getting me as his normal playmate. 
Yesterday I had planned a big day of going through more things and getting it all a little more organized. 
About 20 minutes after breakfast I just couldn't say no to carter any longer and decided we were going to have a full day of play and no work. 
We started off with his first ever fort building.
Which was more fun to destroy than it was to help make, but either way fun.
We built our fort and took in books, toys, and of course goldfish.
Tanner came home for lunch to find Carter and I still tucked away in our fort, both of us in our jammies, and just hanging out.  
Carter is growing so fast I can't believe it.
I love my days where i decide that other things can wait and I just need some good time with my baby.
