If they make a proclamation that faculty and staff are to wear purple on fridays, they really should enforce it, or give out shirts to wear... Not many are wearing it, and I'm ticked. I don't want to either.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY SARAH!!!

Ok, day 2 of panties no accidents... we went to the supermarket after daycare, and I kept asking Dani if she needed to pee, she kept saying no... then I see THAT look, so I asked and she went YEAH, so we RAN to the restrooms... she freaked out because there was no special toilet seat, so I had to hold her and calm her down, and she peed!! :hooray: I cried because I was so excited!!
So this guy from my office just had another grandson this morning... he brought cake to celebrate... his Grandpaness reminds me a lot of my dad... he actually made me teary eyed :wub:
Ash, people in here wear their Bank shirts on Friday... I refuse to do that because I don't do free advertising!! :laugh:

I ask him frequently and even take him to the bathroom but he just goes in his pants! It's so frustrating!!! I wish he would tell me and do like he does at school.
Are Katelyn and Morgan PT?

Morgan is PT. I do put a pull up on her at night but 99% of the time she wakes up dry. I only put them on her now to use them up. Also if she does pee the bed at night its a night when she goes to bed super sleepy.
newmami
08-29-2008, 12:11 PM
Candice, the best advise I can give you about PT is let Chris work at his own pace... put him in the potty, suggest it and make a big deal when he goes, if not, tell him it is OK. Dani has bee sort of using potty since January, but i never pushed the issue, even though I knew she was ready.... we bought panties and everything... she was the one who decided no more diapers during the day
Big duh for me... I am looking for my wallet to go get lunch and I cannot find it... I forgot to get it out from the diaper bag... great!! so I had a Nature Valley bar and yogurt for lunch..... GREAT.........

Sucks about lunch Claudia! I'd be starving!!

08-29-2008, 01:40 PM
Candice... a timer worked for me. I would set an egg timer at night and every 30 minutes we would sit on the potty weather she needed to go or not. Also we went cold turkey on the diapers right to panties. At first it made for a lot of Moping!
lexsmama
08-29-2008, 01:45 PM
That's a good idea, Pam.
Lex is sitting on the potty, but he freaked out the other night. He started to poo in the bathwater, so I sat him on. He went nuts!
Hi Tracy!
Sorry, I shaved, put on black capris, and ate lunch in teh cafeteria. Salsbury steak, rice, cabbage and fruit. Oh, and a bite of the chocoalte cake they had. It was the good buttercream icing...

That is Ok Candice, let him work at his own pace... Dani had days where she was anti potty, then she would stay there for like 10 minutes... they are learning about their bodies

Drama because Sarah is gone today
Drama because you left us for couple days!!

I've never offered him candy 'cause I don't keep candy at the house. Not saying I'm against candy, just if it's there it gets eaten! :lol: I may get a special tub just for gummy bears and reward him that way though. I know his school has gummy bears, but I'm not sure if he gets one every time he goes potty. I need to ask them that today.

Be safe Ashley! Hope Lex is ok! My allergies are killing me today. I've been sneezing my head off and I feel a ton of drainage in my throat. :( It sucks!
Cute story about Chris:I got him this Veggies Tales Silly Song DVD 'cause I know some of the songs on there are real cute and last night he was watching it in the living room and I was in my room. I walked back toward the living room and could hear him singing along. :wub: It was so cute! "Cebuuuuuuuu!" I like the songs on there too, so it's fun to watch and sing along. I need to get him on video so you guys can see him.

Sorry... girls... I am going to be that bad needy friend again that doesn't comment on your all coversation because my own life seems to be bogging me down.
I wont be here very much for the next few days... I need some time I'll keep reading but right now... I am to blue to talk. I went and filed papers today on Grant. I got notice that they are going to let the man out early. :( I just don't see how they can like men like him back out on the streets. Any way it got me into a panic. I took all of the Christmas money and TV money we had saved up and filed papers to have my name and Morgans name changed along with taking all visitation and perental rights away from Grant. First off for some reason I have cried more over this than the divorce. Its almost like Morgan is having to divorce her dad and that seems sadder to me than my own divorce. Then...(I do my best not to talk about this because I don't want any one to feel sorry for me) there is the money issue! I mean it cost an arm and a leg to file those papers and there is nothing saying that they wont need more. That was just the retainer! I think of all the things we NEED... we haven't had a tv for 2 months now I had saved hard to get what little money we did have for the tv, Cooler weather is coming and Morgan doesn't have any socks that fit. I try not to stress because I do have faith that all things will work out. But some times I can't help but be human and thinnk God... your going to have to make a way because I can't find my way out of this one!
Remember me in your prayers right now. :(

Just some cute (at least they are to me) blips to share with you.
When Katelyn wants you to hold something she will say "Mama hold this for a second for a minute."
Last night she sat up in bed (her crib is still in our room) and she found her bunny and then she went to lay back down but she turned and went the opposite way of her pillow and hit her head on the side of the crib rails, so she sits back up and in her sleep, rubs her head and says "I'm okay". Then falls back down on her pillow and goes to sleep. DH and I were cracking up!

Pam, just remember you have the right to feel whatever you want, heck throw a pity party if you need to..... No one can tell you that your feelings are right or wrong
(oh my guy about a thing would be so proud of me :lol:)
I don't do any effort to teach my kids anything, I mean I play with them, but I do not have flashcards, letters or anything like that... I am teaching them about life and how fun it can be... they will learn when they go to school!!
But yes, I have mostly educational toys at home (ok my SIL is a teacher, so she sent some of those leap frog phonics and both kids love them!!)

I don't teach Lex either. I take him to preschool and I play, but we don't go out of our way to teach alphabet, etc. Now colors, he loves to play with his little "credit cards" I picked up for his wallet. (Little cut out pieces of paper that look like cards from a teacher supply.)

Candice, I used to think that Counseling/Therapy was for loonies.... boy was I wrong!! it has helped me to learn about myself, to know it is ok to have certain feelings and how to handle them, and to grow up!!
What... where?? Ike is coming to Disneyworld??? ugh what irks me the most is that hurricanes ALWAYS hit in the weekend... what about ruining my work week and let me stay home couple days???? so unthoughtful

Ohhhh man, I don't know if I want to talk about it. I got weak, did some stupid things and I think...I don't even know what I think. :ohno: Everything is messy again, and I feel like I let it get there and helped it get there. Sorry, this probably doesn't make sense. I'm embarrassed and hurt all over again. :shame: :crying: I haven't wanted to mention anything to you guys about it, not sure why. I think because I knew I was heading down the wrong path again. I still might be, I'm not sure.

It's okay Candice. It doesn't matter if you go down a wrong path, we're here for you. No judging. That's what we do. :hugs: What happened, sweetie?
Stay safe, ladies. I hope Ike at least pays for his ticket on the Disney rides... Sheesh. :lol:
We had bbq. I had a chopped beef on a honey wheat tortilla, with my sauce on the side. Dh had a po boy, and little bit had beans, pickles and chips. Weirdo. He freaked at the beef or chicken.

Candice! Don't worry hun! We all do things we wish we have not. I will tell on myself and tell you what I did once in a weak moment.
Grant and I had field for divorce... i knew of the nasty horid things he had done but didn't want to believe it. I therew myself at him sexualy thinking if I could get him to have sex with me well... it would prove to me that he didn't like little girls...A little TMI but he couldn't get it up no matter how hard I tried! I wasn't what he found attractive. Aftwards I was so mad at myself for doing that and hurt all over again. It was sick! I still hate that I did it but part of me knows it was an itch that just needed scratching! I needed to know that there was nothing there and now I do and would never do it again. Grrr!
I am NOT saying that you did any thing close to what I did I am just saying in times of trasision some times we have to test the water before we can decided yep I was right I really didn't want or need that any more ya know what I mean.

I think we are going for Chinese for lunch. I hope they have something there w/o MSG and all the sauces and such. Blech. I really only eat Chinese 2 times a year. Its not the best for my diet of low carbs.
without
09-05-2008, 09:18 AM
Well... I don't like it because I feel like I could drink the whole ocean after I eat it and then on top of that about 45 minutes after eating Chinese food I burp really big and then I am hungery again.:laugh:

09-05-2008, 09:21 AM
Well, yeah there's that too. Ugh. There is this guy that I work with and he takes me and my friend from work to the train every day as he goes by there. He won't take any money from us directly, so we decided that we would take him to lunch once a month and he gets to choose. I am hoping he picks a steahhouse instead. Last time he chose sushi. I love sushi but totally blew my diet.
Once I go off the diet, I am like a train wreck and eat everything in sight cuz, after all, I've blown it already...

Glad to hear I am not alone! People tell me not to be so strick on my diet but if I give myself an inch.. I will take a mile and for days and days! I am the same way with working out if I let myself miss a day then its even harder to get me back on that treadmil than it was the first day I started!

Oh,,, Tracy I know the feeling! To file the papers on Morgan I had to rob from our Christmas and clothes funds! Stinks I know!
Lynn, I would have bonked the kid upside his head! Silly boy your mama wants you to learn responcablity and not hand you every thing like a spoiled brat! LOL I had to buy my first car too. My payments were 100 bucks a month and it was an old 82 GMC pickup truck. My parents still have it parked in ther barn though it doesn't run any more LOL

I am sleepy, but am attempting another 7 mile run today.
Eek. We did our first 10 K on Monday (6.2) mile race.
I am signing up "I THINK" for a 10 miler in November.

09-05-2008, 09:53 AM
Good JOB!
My goal is 3 miles a week right now and I am one mile away from meeting it this week I think I will keep it at 3 miles for 3 weeks before I bump it up to 4 because I am still pretty sore from just doing 3 but before I know it I will be doing 10 a day too! LOL Well... it might be a year or two but some day!

Hi Ladies, they are making me work too :pokey:
Weather is terrible in here, we are getting wind and rain courtesy of Hannah... as for Ike, bleh I hope he goes away....
Candice, I have done LOTS of things that I later regret... we are only humans sweetie, and we need to feel loved sometimes, or at least feel that we still matter to someone else. The only thing we can do is get up after the fall and keep on going....
We are not here to judge you, only loveys and support!!
I don't want to talk about money, because the issue is bugging me A LOT!! talk to my guy about a thing yesterday..... then DH and I had a conversation about money yesterday, which are always stressful.... at least now I know where he stands, and I also know that he REALLY wants to get out of Florida (I had serious doubts about it)
Why do I have such a hard time communicating with my HUSBAND???? :headbang:
YAY FOR THE 10K TRACY!!!
Food..... I have noticed my stomach gets full faster, now that I decided to decrease the amount of food I eat... so I can still eat pretty much anything, but the portions are getting smaller. :bellyrubs:
DH has to go out of town for work next weekend and he wants me to go with him... I DON'T WANT TO!!! it is very stressful to have both kids out of their routine and their element, they honestly become maniacs... ACK! why did I said yes??????? I really really need some time without him

Can you find something to get out of it with, Clau?
I've been a busy, busy bee today. Sheesh.
It's okay to borrow from Christmas to keep Morgan safe.

I am just getting so upset! I keep getting told I am not eating enough well... then how in the heck to people who eat nothing at all and have Eating disorders ever lose any weight! I am eating about 1,500 calories a day and walking about 3 miles a week at a nice brisk pace and the scales say I gained 3 pounds YESTERDAY!! Why do I even try?

Their bodies start shutting down....eating itself basically, doing damage to organs, etc.
If you want to just change, you have to change forever (sucks, I know...bye bye Arby's for Tracy!!)
So the gradual cut down is what you have to do. It is what WW points force you to do, but just in a different way.
