Here I am!

A lot has been going on, but I just haven’t had the motivation to write.  I’m just going to sum it up quickly because I have stuff to do today and sitting on the computer right now isn’t one of them!!!

Dave passed his Chartered Accountancy exam (YAY!!!) so now he is a CPA and CA. They better give him a freakin’ raise!

My car settlement is done with (after waiting two years!) and I should be getting my part of the money in the mail sometime soon. I’m happy about getting it, but sad that it’s going to bills instead of some nice vacation or a new car. (especially since we’re done to one car again!)   

Everybody talks about the terrible two’s, but nobody mentions the terrible three’s!  

Keira still isn’t completely potty trained and I’m going nuts. I don’t know what to do! She does fine at home when she has no clothes on, but when we put her in panties and pants she tends to forget (not all the time but still too many accidents!!!) and she just wets through everything.   I ask her if she has to go and I put her on the toilet, she does nothing, but then a minute later she’s taker her pants and everything off because they’re all wet!   Yesterday I think we went through 5 pairs of pants/underwear during the afternoon. Anyone have any suggestions?!?!

So mostly good news anyway, but this whole potty training business has me so frusturated!!! 

So in case I’m not back before Christmas,  Merry Christmas everybody!!!

Ryleigh’s pediatrician gave me a pretty good idea. When you take her into go potty have her pick out an M&M first. If she goes potty she gets it, otherwise she has to put it back in a dixie cup and wait till later. It sounds kind of mean, but he swears by it.

With Emily it was as easy as buuying her Disney princess trainer pants. they have hearts etc that disappear when they get wet. She loves hearts etc so didn’t wnt them to disappear. A few accidents and she was adamant she wasn’t making her hearts go away LOL.

Merry Christmas and congratulations to him for passing! I remember you talking about the amount of studying and leading up to this… EEK! I have no advice. Spencer does fine at home too but in public not so much. He’s been taking his big boy undies off too and walking around naked or bringing me a diaper… GRR!
