About 15 minutes ago Bianca and I put baby Sam to bed.
Man, that kid is active nowadays.
He walks everywhere and you have to watch him like a hawk.
I made the house baby proof today but he still found things to break and grab.
It's extremely tiring.
Then I got a genius insight!
If he's family he must like games.
I fired up the SNES mini I bought not long ago and unplugged his controller and gave it to him.
We played Super Mario World.
He loved it and it gave me a 30-minute break!
This is baby Sam when he was 6 weeks and the first picture I shared on steemit. Growing up fast? you bet.
After 30 minutes he was back on his warpath. And I followed suit. You have no choice. This is a whole new ballgame.
I can't deny I was contemplating it for a second....it works to calm me down :)
We watched some cartoons. When I was a kid I was a big fan of Ducktales. Loved that show. I gave it a shot. He liked it for about 3 minutes...not bad. Later that day we watched Bumba it's awful beyond belief but my sister told me he loves it. It was true.
Bianca made him some mash and he ate everything. And fast too. This is a huge plus when they get older!
He was running around like a madman after food. Must have given him new powers. I can relate. Happens to me too. But 30 minutes later he came to me with a book. He wanted me to read to him. It was a cool moment. He knows us now.
After reading the same book over and over again we put him in his bed.
Before that, I made an honest attempt to change his diaper and managed about 50% of the job.
He has a rash on his butt and I'm to clunky with cleaning so Bianca took over.
She was done in seconds. It's so pro.
He slept straight away.
Tomorrow around 7 it starts again.

Cool to read - and nice to see how hard you are trying.
Now imagine I have three of those and a fourth on it way .... you need completely different concepts to stay on top.
And what seems true is a saying they habe here (I hope it translates well) - small kids small worries - big kids big worries ...

Bro spend time with child is like we spend quality time.
Even i love children very much. I too have nephew and he is just 2 year old. I love to play with him. I sometime give a bath to him and then we eat food.
It's very nice feeling too. Children like cartoon and playing games.
My nephew is very naughty. He is 2 year old and even unable to talk but know well to operate mobile to play game.
Today's children are genius and fast forward.
I don't know the relation of this baby with you but he is so adorable.

I have two boys, 23 and 13, and I do not know where the time has went. In a blink of an eye they grew up, or are growing up. Please take advantage of all the special moments you get, like the diaper changes, the chase games, the cartoons and even taking them in when they nap, because it goes by fast and the next thing you know you are watching them graduate school or hearing about their engagement.
You have a lovely family so go make some memories my friend.

Funny and so adorable! But as a parent, it is obligatory for us to give the best for him. For example by playing games and controlling him not to run to the kitchen and squeeze the knife !!! Because, sometimes we forget to control our children because of busyness.

A favorite memory... when my oldest was that age, he got up earlier than I, walked to my bed, pounded my sleeping face, and said ceerial. When I failed to jump, he pounded again. You may want to get up early...

Hey @exyle. I hope all is going well. I had some free time so I decided to pop back in and see how you are doing haha.
I can't believe how much Sam has ground (I guess that is what children tend to do). I remember how he would sleep for hours as well as that one experience where his... how do I say it, 'excrements' went everywhere. It seems like Bianca is always ready to save the day.
It is great to see you firing up the SNES and letting Sam have a go. It feels as if this 'retro game culture' is slowly dying. I went to an arcade as of recently and some children aged 12 had no idea what pacman or snake was.
Great to see you are still on your daily upload grind. I think I've went 5 months posting every day or so. I hope you are still keeping up with your gym routine. Maybe we will see an Arnold Schwarzenegger like exyle haha. Have a great day! :)

This almost always holds true for ALL toddlers. They get so excited at the ability to carry themselves around that they can't just maintain one position. Like damn! Just a few weeks ago, they were on all fours but now they can hold their body upright and walk like a normal human? The feeling is nostalgic. That is why personality studies show that at this stage they mainly engage in "solitary play". They don't want your trouble at all. They just want to enjoy their newly discovered "superpowers" in peace

Ha. ha. ha! Welcome to my world when we get the grandkids to look after. They run you ragged.
We're in a similar situation. The youngest started crawling last week and that's a whole 'nother ball game with child care. The trouble is his brother is 3 and he's more interested in his toys, which are totally unsuitable, not to mention dangerous, than his own.
My kids are 10 years apart from I've never dealt with this before!
The photos are so sweet. Glad you're enjoying it. Hope you get a good nights sleep ready for the onslaught in the morning.

I think Toddler Sam is the better name for baby Sam😎. Cause he is growing day by day and showing some creativity. He not like other babies. I noticed that some special power setting have his brain what is working as well and growing different way.
From all that activities justified that Toddler Sam is the perfect name.
Hello,,," Toddler Sam" grow up with your master plan..

Your kid is so cute. Just by looking at the photos of bianca and sam i do now know the only love that I really believe in is a mother’s love for her children. Children they may quarrel, but generally speaking they do not harbor ill feelings as much or as long as adults do. Children don't usually act in such a manner. If they feel angry with someone, they express it, and then it is finished. They can still play with that person the following day. We should be like them.

I so much appreciate what you have done to be a good father. Believe me, any sacrifice you make for your family is worth it. They are the first ones to stand by us in times of adversity. A lot of families today go wrong because Dad is extremely busy with making ends meet while mum is like a single parent - they usually cant handle it all alone, they dont.
I may sound like am into it, but am not yet there. Still in a relationship that should lead to marriage. But i hope to make my future wife and children a priority. Its the best thing to do.
And like you said, time flies fast. Before you knew it, these beautiful young ones have grown into adults. If they they will grow into responsible adults will largely depend on some of this you do now that almost constitutes nuisance to your personal life or business. But like i said, the effort is worth it. In the part of the world where i grew up (Africa), children are considered the ultimate investment. Every parent wants to give their best because when they grow old, they expect the best. What goes around, comes around. YOUR TIME IS THE GREATEST GIFT YOU CAN GIVE YOUR CHILDREN. IF YOU ALREADY CREATE ENOUGH TIME FOR THE FAMILY, CONGRATULATIONS!
YOU ARE MAKING EFFORT AND SACRIFICE IN THE RIGHT DIRECTION!

Good luck in your growth. Greetings from Mexico for a Venezuelan.
