Crayons, Cake & Losing my Cool: An Honest Toddler Mom Vlog

This week with my 21 month old toddler, we are starting off going to a double birthday party! My cousins started renting a house on the other side of the city so we go and visit for the first time while celebrating two birthdays!
Taking a quick break for mom & dad to get a little date breakfast together at a brunch place we have been itching to try for the longest time & it does not disappoint!
We have been slowly introducing crayons and coloring books to our little girl this week and she had been loving it! Of course this comes with limitations though because she has already taken one of her crayons to my oil paintings... Don't worry though because they are washable so it was an easy clean.
Lastly I tell a not so fun story about me 'loosing my cool' as a mom. Trying so so hard to be patient with my toddler one morning while she is non stop screaming at me just made me snap. It does not picture me in a positive light but I felt like I had to tell the story so you know that being a stay at home mom with an almost 2 year old is not all rainbows & sunshine. I am trying my best but sometimes it gets to be too much for me that I have to ask for help.

I know it’s not much but it does get easier. Keep your chin as we say here in the UK.
