I finally found a small island for my kitchen. It's back ordered, but I bought it (from Amazon) and they just updated the delivery date for Oct 12 - Nov 15.. It's a huge window, but I'm just hoping it comes before Thanksgiving. We are hosting this year (first time, eek!) and I need the extra prep surface. I also hope it works out in our kitchen and I don't have to return it. H has been incredibly picky and hard to work with when it came to finding one, and he kind of settled on this one so fx.

RunsforWineandCarbs , my selling point to h was that it looks like it'll match our coffee bar nicely so it kind of ties those 2 pieces in.. Lets hope it looks the same in person.. This is our coffee bar: <iframe width="10.980000000000018" height="13.799999999999955" style="position: absolute; width: 10.980000000000018px; height: 13.799999999999955px; z-index: -9999; border-style: none;left: 5px; top: 37px;" id="MoatPxIOPT0_43728170" scrolling="no"></iframe> <iframe width="10.980000000000018" height="13.799999999999955" style="position: absolute; width: 10.98px; height: 13.8px; z-index: -9999; border-style: none; left: 492px; top: 37px;" id="MoatPxIOPT0_22963109" scrolling="no"></iframe> <iframe width="10.980000000000018" height="13.799999999999955" style="position: absolute; width: 10.98px; height: 13.8px; z-index: -9999; border-style: none; left: 5px; top: 662px;" id="MoatPxIOPT0_66602499" scrolling="no"></iframe> <iframe width="10.980000000000018" height="13.799999999999955" style="position: absolute; width: 10.98px; height: 13.8px; z-index: -9999; border-style: none; left: 492px; top: 662px;" id="MoatPxIOPT0_87255662" scrolling="no"></iframe>

He thinks it will have died down by the time he gets thru charleston, then it's straight sailing (it might literally be sailing at that point)

We still get night time pull ups here because lolnoway am I washing bedding multiple times a week. I'll deal with night time pull ups because the kids take them off and throw them out by themselves 👐👐👐

Ethan is strong willed and refuses to go on the potty. He knows when he goes and goes as far as saying he’s so wet he needs a full clothing change ,

And it seriously went from not sitting at all at home (he would at school) to telling us in less than a week. We still do night time and naps in pull ups because he doesn’t wake up to pee.

we did 1 m&m for sitting on potty. 2 m&m's for peeing 3 m&m's for pooping.
I also brought the little potty out to the family room and would get him to sit on it watching tv so he'd get use to it. i would also sit him on the potty to go every 30 mins the first 2 days of potty training.

P’s daycare did stickers for peeing in the potty and lollipops for pooping. (I did the least. They told me they thought she was ready for underwear. I got some, and she had one accident and then was good.) The only issue is that she is fully trained now (and has been for months), but she still thinks she should get a lolly if she poops. Um, no.

So I'm curious, did anyone else have issues of their kid not telling when they had to go, even though they're holding pee until they're on the toilet? I don't know if that's a normal thing, or if it's related to apraxia. He's only told us once, and is hit or miss on signaling.

We just have it built into the routines to go, so not that much opportunity to say. (Never misses the 'I have to go pee ' once settled into bed though. )

Poppy always tells us she has to go. But she also, I think, makes up that she has to when she is anxious/ in a new situation. Or maybe she is a nervous pee-we.

Sounds like that's likely what's happening. I don't think it's necessarily a problem at this stage of the game. As long as it isn't leading to a ton of accidents, I wouldn't worry. How is M doing with his speech therapy? Any improvement in his expressive language?

aydee we are seeing some improvements. He's started to say longer sentences without prompting and some sounds are becoming more recognizable to people other than H and I. We still have a long way up go, but we've been encouraged that he's getting the right care currently. Thank you for asking ❤
