  This sequence of events is based on real life experience with my three-year-old son. It’s funny and it’s true all at the same time. This list assumes that the toddler is already dressed and clean which is a whole other ball game. Add little sister into the mix and you can count on at least doubling the amount of steps involved. I hope this puts a smile on your face.
