Progress every day

The Boy is hysterical today!  Today my son played and peed.....oh and he drew pictures too!  Like I said in the prior post, I was basically home all day.  So we did the potty every 30 minutes and little man went 6 times!  One of those times he actually pooped.....well only a little.  The kids going to give himself hemorrhoids, he things he has to push to get pee pee out.  Tried not to laugh, I giggled a little, all he wanted was candy. 

He played Little People Mall most of the day.  Setting up the people in a car and driving them around.  He is so funny, he told me an octopus was a Pizza man, not too sure where he got that from.  His play skills are coming along beautifully!

Lastly tonight he was drawing with his Magnadoodle and i had to bust out laughing.  First he is Screaming "MAMA, WIA (how he says Baby Divas name), DADDY!" over and over.  So me and Baby Diva head over to his room and he looks at me and says "Mama, Wia, Wheres Daddy?....DADDY!!!!!"  I laughed out of joy, I can not believe he said that!  It made sense, it was appropriate!  Earlier he had said "daddy what happened?" when Baby Diva was crying......I wasn't sure if it was directed at her, but this time I knew.  So he wanted us to come in so he could show us his drawings......which all looked like ovals to us but, he was proud.  I posted them below.....Enjoy the Art show.  I laughed my butt off at the happy camel face!

 This is "A Shell"

 This is "A Walrus".....um ok looks like another oval

Having Children Means.....Always smelling a hint of Urine

I'm frustrated with potty training.  Every 30 minutes I'm suppose to drag this kid to the toilet and have him sit there for 10.  And sit he does, and talk about pee pee, and talk about poo poo and talk about flushing and scream at his Privates "PEE PEES OUT!"  In 2 weeks he has peed 4 times.  I suppose that's good, but I am frustrated that he seems to either A. still not understand the sensation of urinating or B. he is being a brat and holding it in so he can pee in a diaper.  The other day he held it for 3 hours.....that's 6 potty runs....only to pee in the Pull up 5 minutes later.  And pull-ups are expensive!!! No pee in Pull-ups!!!  I'm tired of pee in diapers and I'm super tired of Poop in diapers. 

I'm told to flood his system with water so he will go on the toilet.  Last night this led to a kid who held it in until he went to bed.  This morning a pee soaked child crawled into bed with me.  I mean SOAKED in pee, everywhere on his shirt too, he exploded a diaper.  He went to Grandmas tonight and I am hot washing all bed linens.  I'm so sick of urine. 

The Placebo Effect

So, I didn't think it was possible but I think it is.  I gave my son Fish oil and vit.C for 2 days and the placebo effect has effected me!  I'm pretty sure your kid doesn't over night start saying 4 word sentences and having his first pee on the toilet because of fish oil.  "call daddy on phone" he says....ummmmm OK!   My husband didn't believe he said that, but he did.  Then I put him on the toilet this morning, and finally the kid peed!  He looked shocked, like he didn't know what happened or why in Gods name i was jumping around and shoving candy in his mouth at 8am.  Please picture a mother jumping and shoving m&m's into the mouth of a 3 year old with no pants on....its comical and confusing, I completely understand why he was confused. 


Like I said, I think its all in my head.  Aside from my daughter rubbing sunblock in her eyes, today has been a good day :)
