Undies, Undies, Undies

Posted on May 21, 2010 by Nancy

We introduced Logan to Undies last Saturday. That day, he went through 4 pairs before realizing he could stay dry if he used the potty.

Sunday was about the same.

On Monday, we both got tired of things after 2 wet pairs and switched back to pull-ups. (Plus, we were out and about for the afternoon and pull-ups just seemed smarter)

On Tuesday he went through 3 pairs of undies with Nanny Jessica.

On Wednesday he went through 2 pairs.

Yesterday, he had NO accidents!! He woke up in the morning and I asked if he had to use the potty. He said “Nope!” so I didn’t push it. He put one foot on the stairs and said “Wait!” and ran back to the bathroom. Then he consistently asked to use the potty ALL DAY.

Today’s looking good so far as well.

I’m not delusional … I don’t really think he’s 100% trained…and I know there will still be accidents…but wow. That was easier than I thought it would be! (And I know that I just jinxed myself…)

Makes My Monday: Making My Kids’ Monday

Posted on May 17, 2010 by Nancy

Mike finished it! I was able to help Saturday and Sunday, but I had to get some work done today…so Mike finished it off by himself.

The kids are in heaven.

Almost There…

Posted on May 16, 2010 by Nancy

We got an elevated club house with a sandbox beneath for the kids…holy cow! It’s taking a wee bit longer to put together than we thought. I’ll post pictures when we finally finish…

Saturday Snapshot: The Undies Experiment

Posted on May 15, 2010 by Nancy

Logan is in (Mickey Mouse) undies…for the first time ever!

He’s been doing…well…with the potty. Better with Nanny Jessica than with me. I’m hoping that being able to feel the wet will move things along.

Saturday Snapshot: Stray Kitty

Posted on May 8, 2010 by Nancy

This pretty kitty showed up in our back yard yesteday…obviously hungry. We, of course, fed him (her?)…and he came back today. So we fed him again. 🙂

We’ll put signs up around to see if anyone has lost a kitty, but Mike has given the go-ahead to bring him inside if he comes back AGAIN. (Wonder what our existing two cats are gonna think…)

Wonder if he’ll come back again…

Friday’s Fotos: A Priate Ship and MNO

Posted on May 7, 2010 by Nancy

As I mentioned before, our kiddie pool from last year needed to be replaced.

Behold the pirate ship pool!

Pirates!

The Dread Pirate Logan

The Dread Pirate Burke

(Yes, those are inflatable pirate hat, shield, and sword – 2 sets! And an inflatable treasure chest as well. Oh and the cannons shoot water if you attach the hose. LOL!)

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Last night, I attended the National Mom’s Night Out. (I may have mentioned one or two times that I put together 150 Swag Bags for this event…) It was sooooo much fun!! And my friends Tanya and VP helped out too!

Getting ready to unload the Swag Bags

Cupcakes from 5Bites Cupcakes

(The 5Bites Cupcakes were SO good! If you’re in the area, definitely give them a try.)

Waiting in Line for Things to Start

Edible Arrangements

(The Edible Arrangements fruit was good too – and went really fast!)

Refreshements Table

Mini Manicure

Make-up Sessions

Massage Chair

(The nails and massages were provided by Jesamondo Salon and Spa; the make-up was provided by Dianna Quagenti.)

And Land’s End provided very capable staff to do the swimsuit fittings. (I figured a picture of that would be a wee bit inappropriate though 😉 )

And the Swag Bags were such a hit that one woman begged for one for a “friend who is parking the car.” We told her that there were plenty and that when her friend got there, she could register for one herself. About 1/2 hour later, she was witnessed taking one of the bags that was behind the table! WHO DOES THAT?! We chatted quickly amongst ourselves and decided that we should go after her. Katie stepped up and got the bag back (explaining that the bags were meant to be one per person. GO Katie!!) Crazy night. But what a blast 🙂
