Wishful Wednesday



I wish potty training looked this joyful! We are not even close to getting there, but thought this picture was too cute. She had just gotten out of the bath and looked like she had some business to take care of. Unfortunately nothing happened. Wishing it did :)

  1. I still have a hard time excepting that Gus is no longer a baby so potty training hasn't even been on my radar until I saw this. I can't believe these lil' tikes are almost to that stage. It makes me sad...

  3. I totally feel ya on this one. Faith sits on the potty alllllll the time and NOTHING happens. :) At least you have two kids successfully potty-trained under your belt. I'm beginning to think I'm doing someting wrong... :) (Ava is such a cutie!)

  4. Oh man, potty training is not my favorite. I almost wish there were people you could hire that would come in to your home and do it for you.

  5. I'm with the hiring/contracting out for potty training. It was by far the most challenging experience I have had as a parent. On the other hand...I actually learned a lot about my self through potty-training so may be what is challenging is actually a blessing. Maybe this could turn into a future post for me? "Lessons learned from the trenches of potty-training"...okay now I'm rambling...off for some much needed sleep.

  6. At least she sits on the potty. Adam is afraid of it I think. We've had one success on the potty and that was a few weeks ago. Sad to say but daycare really helped with Daniel's potty training. We didn't really have to do anything so I'm kinda startin from scratch. Argh!

Okay Dallas when you hit the ball you need to run to 1st base, 2nd base, and then home.....no mom! I don't want to go home!Reese was outside singing today while she was on the swing. And she says to me. "Mom, the sun is coming out because I am singing....I am wakin it up!" Keep singing girl, keep singing!Dallas: Look mom his doesn't have twin wheels! (translation:training wheels)Dallas: When I am a daddy....I want one of those baby Norahs.So sweet!Reese: Mom I like these things...What things? Reese: These Rat-tat-too-ies Do you mean Tattoos?Reese: Yah! TattoosDallas was holding Norah and this is what he said....Norah pooped. She pooped 3 times....Oooo....she pooped 10 times mom!!Reese was going to the bathroom and when she was done she looked (as all kids do) and said "oooo, look mom. I ate carrots!"Reese has been wanting her ears pierced. She spent that night at Ambers house and asked her if she could do it. Amber told her that it would hurt and after she did one ear she would have to do the second ear. She said "how bout you do the second ear first"We been telling the kids that Norah can't have anything to eat because she is to little. Dallas walks in the hospital and get up to look at Norah and says: "I want to see if she has a mouth"In the morning when the kids wake up they come and crawl in bed with us. I was laying on my side talking with Reese. She looked at me and said "Mom...your boobs are hugging" I just laughed. She then said "they love each other" The thoughts of a 5 ....and just in case you were wondering. I was wearing a tank top ;)Mom....when I am a mom I will have two kids and then we will have lots of kids at our house!!(And what do we have now...I am thinking)Dallas looked at my blog and the picture of the "barefoot and pregnant""mommy that's you!"Boy do I love that kid ;)My room is usually a mess. Of course I have all the "good" excuses as to why :) Well my surprise when I got home from work was a nice clean room with a made bed.When Reese came and got me this morning she said "Mom your room is Amazing!"

the things they say...

Reese: Hey mom look! She walks just fine and doesn't even need a cane! (we were at costco and she said this about an elderly lady...nice!)
