I also want to run out to Target and see what clearance clothes they have and see if I can start an early stockpile for some basics for the kids.

And hoping to work on some centerpieces for K's party. So far, I have this, but want to add sand. Could use some critiques.

Good morn. Today is day 1 of PT so MH and I are taking shifts watching a naked baby. I am kind of liking that we are forced to be home today because it gives me more time to work on setting the nursery up and getting things organized. Tuesday is MH's bday and I have nothing. He is so good about presents and I suck so hard. He got his father's day present weeks late, and at least with that I had an idea. I've got nothing.

fierymama, very cute! I like. I've decided no party for us this year and we are going to go to the beach instead.

K has been coming into out bed for a week now. I am ready for whatever is causing this to stop. I just want to sleep in my bed without an extra body in it. J was in our bad all last night after having a couple of good nights in his own bed. It's so frustrating.

So much PT happening around here! A is consistently pooping but will not pee in the toilet. I feel like it's usually the other way around so not sure what that's all about. I did buy some Mickey Mouse training underwear on prime day that she's really excited about.
Headed to church and a baby shower shortly. Leaving A at home with H since she needs to nap during that time so I'm about to be kid-free for the next 4-5 hours.

Although c has the signs that he is almost ready. We even sat him on the potty but he quickly reacted the gif I just posted. No no no no he said.
Glad him and I are on the same page.

Also.. My family keeps asking me when I'm going to start Potty Training A... My response every time is "would YOU like to do it? Because I'm not ready to make that commitment" .. And that's the truth. Knowing my head-strong, determined, independent daughter, she'll get the hang of it in a few days but I'M not ready to have another thing in my head to remember to do

I needed a couple household items so I decided to hit Walmart instead of Target, because at Target, I never get everything I need and spend at least $100... some guy was walking his dog around the food area, which was gross... it was not a service animal... another lady had a dog in her cart and it was yapping the entire time, then it pooped and the lady left it. I said something to the bitch and she looked at me and walked away. I then loudly said, lady, your dog just took a shit in the food area of this store, can you please clean up after your pet. A bunch of people started telling her she needed to clean it up and her response was, you don't know that it was my dog... bitch, I saw your dog do it. That was disgusting and I never want to shop at Walmart again.

Can you do HBO now? I think it's $7 a month and it's just online. We can watch it in our Apple TV, XBox, PlayStation, or the phones. You can get a 30 day free trial too.

We're definitely not doing PT in the near future. We have a trans-Atlantic flight next month so we are staying in diapers until then. Then when we get back, I only have about a week until I go back to school and I don't think adjusting back to being at home and PT right before transitioning back to going to day care is a good idea. I'm saying all that because if we weren't going on that trip or the timing were different, I may have wanted to try it during the second half of this summer. Also, our sleep is still crap so I don't think that makes it a good time either!

My potty training plan is to let daycare take the lead and do most of the work. Only sort of joking.

They are with him most of the waking hours and have a system and peer pressure on their side. I assume they don't even think about it till in the 2yo room. He will probably move there at the end of the summer.

I've noticed that I'm getting wrinkles where my dimples are! WTH?! Dimples are supposed to make you cute, not look old!!! I guess I just have to walk around smiling all the damn time.

E is showing signs too. I ask if he wants to sit on the potty every few weeks and he says no, loudly, each time

No to PT over here. I'm just trying to get him to STTN again. How's that going? I guess not good. We were really bad, had a couple good nights and then went to crap again. He hasn't fallen asleep in his crib in a very long time at this point. We are leaving for a trip tomorrow, which will not help I'm sure. The only way I can get him to nap is to lay on the couch around 3pm and put on a video and he'll get a little nap. I don't know what is up with him. Since he's just getting out of his crib like it is no big deal I think we are going to go ahead and switch to a regular bed. I mean, what's the point if he doesn't stay in it? I'm thinking that might make things easier on me/DH because we could lay there with him in his bed as he falls back asleep instead of bringing him in our bed. Or at least that is what I'm thinking, we'll see how it plays out. I will look for one on Craigslist or something when we get back from the beach. I think we're just going to go to a twin and not do the toddler bed thing (crib doesn't convert). We already have rails from my sister's kids hand-me-downs.

E is showing some signs of interest in the potty but I know it can be awhile before they are really ready anyway. A couple times a week he asks to sit on the potty and usually it is right before he poops. So we take off pants, diaper and go sit there. But nothing happens. Then we put everything back on and then he poops in his diaper!

easternshoregirl, he's had a couple of good nights, but then he'll have a bad night. Like last night, he woke up twice before midnight and then would not let me out him down so I just brought him in my bed.
