I go Potty..

I have never been so proud to state that my son used the potty this morning for the 1st time ever!!! :D Usually his diapers are wet when I change him in the mornings, but not this morning. I was about to change him but new that he would have to pee sometime within the few minutes, so I asked Hunter if he wanted to go pee pee in the potty, he shook his head yes, & pointed towards the bathroom. We walked in the bathroom, I sat him down on his potty, then he insist that I sit down on my potty as well, so I do just that. As I was about grab a book for him to concentrate on, I look over & pee is flying across from him, Ha, so I simply helped him out by adjusting himself. And what do ya know, he did it! Hurray. (this may not be big news for you folks, but gosh I was tickled to death, kind of like a kid in the candy store, ya know?!?) I was so excited, I hugged him, & told him he was such a big boy & he was a big boy for using the potty, & rewarded him with a dollar. He had this look on his face as if, yeah ok mom, Really? Ha!

*proof =)
I’ve been sitting him on his potty a few times a week here & their to get the feel of it, like I’ve read about. We also got him a “I go Potty” book that we usually read every other night. I’m not saying that those things helped him but I know that it’s one step closer to him becoming potty trained. We’ll have to definitely start practicing more often than usual, but don’t want to rush him.

If your curious to know what we did over the weekend, well it wasn’t much….
Friday I did a little shopping for my ahem.. friends baby shower (I’ll get back to my so called “friend” later, that calls for another post). My husband & I drove around searching for another vehicle we could purchase for cheap but big enough for the 3 of us to fit. Didn’t find anything. Later that evening I took Hunter to get his hair cut for the 5th time. He actually sat all by himself & did very well. His hair stylist even used the trimmers on his hair.

Saturday I cleaned most of the day (even though I should have done that Friday). We were going to go outside and play in Hunter’s mini pool but it started raining. =( Sunday morning I got up & my baby boy’s butt was as raw as can be, he had runny diapers for 2 days. Poor guy was in so much pain. Needless to say we didn’t go to church because of this, so we just lounged around the house. That evening as Hunter was napping mommy laid out in the sun for a while, then once little man woke up we played in his pool, and road the four wheeler around.

We finally got a truck Sunday evening. My Sil’s husband had an old Ford he let my husband have for cheap. It is in good condition, and lots more room than the yota! We love it & couldn’t be happier. NO PAYMENT! SCORE!!! :) Anyways that was our weekend. Hope you all are having an awesome week so far. Two more days before the my weekend, then It’s off for four days. Yay.
