Friday is Upon Us

[jedi]

Raise your hand if you are like me and have no interest in potty training.

jedi, I mean, DS2 is starting to show signs of readiness but I'm letting day care take the lead on that. I don't think they will work on potty training until he goes to the 2's room (though I haven't asked) so working on it at home right now is pointless. I also like not having to worry about when everyone needs to pee.

[booarogue]

librarylady it's not as intense as the book makes it seem BTW. The couple days are a lot of watching a naked kid but once you learn a's signs it's much easier. Today I need to monitor him closely again but yesterday we were at a friend's house just playing.

[booarogue]

jedi w has actually been showing the readiness signs for a few months but h and I weren't ready. Then he had a day where he only went in the toilet and realized we needed to start or we'd be going backwards.
I did almost consider getting a job just to pay for daycare to do it though. 😂😂😂😉

[booarogue]

Anyone watch my little pony? The new one on Netflix? That's what we're doing this morning so w stays in one area 😂
It's not like I remember.

[booarogue]

Also fuck me if I turned this into a potty training thread. No thank you. I've been living it for weeks (reading, prepping, and now this week or doing it) don't make me talk about too. I wanna talk about normal non toilet stuff. Which is why I won't be looking at the fffc thread today because I'm sure there's poop talk in there 😂

[booarogue]

W and I have been making googly eyes for his monster birthday which has been fun.

[CestLaVie]

skinandbones dooo ittt!!!!
That's something I always wished I did.

I should probably start PTing with L I just hate it! She definitely wants to but it's so much effort! DH made a meeting with his boss today so I really hope things go better for him. We had morning sex to try to mitigate the shitshow that is our lives during the day hahaha

I'm having a cider and it's 10:56. I'm calling it juice.

N sat on the potty last night but he didn't do anything. I have 5 days off for Labor Day weekend (which is his bday, too) and maybe we will PT then? He moves up Monday so I need to talk to his teachers about what they do. For some reason I think his school doesn't until 3...

[fierymama]

My current situation. Was hoping to order balloons and find something to make centerpieces for her birthday, but she fell asleep. There is no way I am waking her up. Nope. Nope. Nope.

[CestLaVie]

fierymama, I definitely carry my kobo in my purse for situations like this. Kick back the seat and read! haha.

[jedi]

I mean I think we're showing some signs but when I ask him if he wants to go on the potty, he freaks out.

[jedi]

Speaking of potty training, one of the moms on my moms club practice/practiced elimination communication with her kids. Basically taking them to the toilet as s newborn.

Which reminds me, minnesota was days away from being about to declare the measles outbreak over but then an adult male (not vaccinated) got it. After asking him where he's been it included places in my county and the county it started in. But they don't want to create panic so they aren't saying where he's gone specifically. Anyway, they suspect more to pop up now. I think we are at 79.

[jedi]

I get to go get s1 in a few hours. Boy oh boy I can't wait!

[jess213]

No desire to potty train. Maybe when school starts back up I'll be able to focus on it?

I'll do it if you do it. 

[CestLaVie]

skinandbones haha I wish!! Maybe when DH gets his new job..

[booarogue]

fierymama that's definitely time to read and chill. Or check out Pinterest.

[booarogue]

jedi I read about EC and just knew it was not for me.

[flippinchica]

I haven't even bought a potty ring or kid potty so no attempt here. DS doesn't seem interested.

[booarogue]

The measles outbreaks make me want to go hide in a bubble just hearing about it gives me the shivers. jedi

[booarogue]

jedi I'm so glad you get to see s1. I'm hoping he's been having a better time.

[CestLaVie]

Can't wait until work is done!

[45thparallel]

We are heading to the language followup meeting for DD. I'm both hoping and dreading that they tell us she needs one on one help.

[fierymama]

Ugh, she woke up a little bit later and in a foul mood. Went into Party City and did what I wanted to with a screaming almost 2 year old. Made the decision to skip the craft store until a later time. She fussed almost the whole way home. I think molars are partially to blame. So like any good parent, I stopped and got her an icee.
