NO. NO. NO Potty TAAAAIN
Potty Training update

He is doing well, I think. We are having accidents and forgetful times (mine as well as his part). But every time I get him on the potty it is a huge cry fest.  Then he goes, we do "the potty dance" (a made up ditty to the tune of "Hurray for Hollywood") and talk about what a big boy he is and how nice it is to be using the potty. blah, blah, blah. All hunky dorrey until the next time.

I do think this is what is causing his naughty behavior.  I think it is the stress.  Back at 18 months when he was sitting on the potty and doing very well and I was as proud of my little guy (and boasted a bit, i am sure--sorry folks) there wasn't stress like this. Of course, he was only playing with me about potty training that early. :sigh:

So today when I said:"Remember Daniel, if you need to go potty before the timer goes off (this is to remind ME to get him on) you tell mommy. We need to keep Diego dry. (he has Go Diego, Go pull ups right now--his choice, not mine). (he walks away saying nothing) Do you hear me, Daniel?"  He says:
" Me hear you jesss fine. Me not listening."

Oh yeah.  We have the spirit of meekness and obedience here at our house.  Yep.

He is Risen, Just as He said!

My oldest didn't potty train until she was ALMOST 4. The child was CHANGING herself...I'd look up and she'd be in all new clothes and a new pull up and everything...she even carefully put everything into the trash can...UGH.

Now my third pretty much potty trained herself...she's a brilliant child, no question.

All I can say is, "This too shall pass"...and it'll give you a bunch of memories to make you smile.

As to how I get so many pictures up...I dunno. I upload my pictures to Picasa and then just link over here and ba da bing...there they are. Is that how you do it too?
