Potty Training and Other Stuff

Ok, so I really am trying to be better about updating our blog!! Everyday is not possibly and really every week isn’t too realistic, so we will stick to updates as often as I can. Here goes...

Potty Training!!

It’s going pretty good!! Jackson is getting the hang of it and is so proud when he goes on the potty, even if it is just a little bit of “pee pee”. When he does both the little guy is over the moon!! I’m so proud of him for doing this and doing it so well. He is now starting to tell me or someone that he needs to go, HUGE in the realm of potty training, especially since he is only 19 months!! We have a routine which helps a TON!! Wake up in the morning and watch some cartoons and stretch, then we go to the living room where Jackson plays and I fix breakfast. We eat breakfast and do a quick cleanup before we excitedly rush to the bathroom to get on the potty!! Pants down, diaper off, butt on seat!! Then I tell him, “Good job Jackson!! Now lets put some poo poo’s and pee pee’s in the potty!!”. I let him have some privacy while I get a clean diaper or pull up (which ever Jackson prefers for the day), and then wait for him to tell me he is all done (I either ask and he will raise his arms to say all done, or he will yell for me, Ma Ma!!!). With the routine in place and a few periodic bathroom stops we are down to about 3 diapers/ pull ups a day!! YAAAHOOO!!!!! So enough about that... What else has gone one... Not much really... May 15 came and went with lots of sadness for me!! Frank(Jack’s dad) and I were supposed to get married that day. It was a lot tougher then I anticipated! Of course Frank didn’t understand why i was so upset, but he is a guy!! Not much else to write about, I’m still working on getting the Civic sold so I can buy a new used car. It’s looking like I will trade it in and loose my butt on it so that I can have transportation again!!

How is everyone else though?? What is new?? School, work, family, friends, life?? Let us know!!

We love you,
Brittany and Jackson
