Day 2 on the Potty Train!

6 Successes
2 Accidents

Paxtin peed on Anakin & Tristin's bedroom floor and unfortunately on Tristin's pillow (it was on the floor...they were making forts, of course)! LOL! The other accident was poop, so...wow, I'm proud! :) Not sure what tomorrow will bring with church. I'm sure we'll have to put him in a pull-up.

I have felt like crap today. I had a headache last night and woke up with one this morning (hate that). I don't think I've ever had a migraine, but man, this could have been one. I took a nap...woke up and felt even worse! The light was too bright and the boys' voices (they like to hum a lot...I mean a LOT) drove me nuts. I quickly sent them outside to play. ;) Like they minded! I feel a little better tonight, but I need to go to bed earlier tonight. So...night! :)

We're riding the potty train!

(That's something Tristin said when he was potty training, "Mommy, I don't want to ride the potty train!" Too cute!

Let me start this post with this. I should have started potty training Paxtin in DECEMBER. He was ready. He was willing. He was able! LOL! But, I didn't and here we are in July. Paxtin is 2 1/2. Wow, he's 2 1/2!!!! My baby!!! Anyway, we started in full force yesterday with underwear, stickers and candy for rewards. We had four successes and five accidents. We're calling THAT a success. LOL! We had to force him (which is pretty easy considering he WANTS stickers and WANTS 2 M&Ms just for trying!) a few times.

So, today is a new day and he woke up and actually peed on the potty 1st thing and once again a few minutes ago. A great start! No accidents! He's too cute! :)

Okay, how can I not show this too? Here's Amy Martin's ad for this week. I've got 2 layouts in it AND Tristin is them...LOL! (Now I have all 3 covered. ;)) www.the-lilypad.com It's the best! Check out the gallery there...it's amazing!

TOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOT!
There's a lot of tooting going on over here!!! For my non-digital scrapbooking friends, that means I've got something to yell from the roof tops! Look...2 of my babies are in 2 different digi newsletters this month!

First, Anakin in Dani and Amy Martin's ad for "Funky Free"...one amazing kit! Get it here: http://www.the-lilypad.com/ or http://www.sweetshoppedesigns.com/ It's the red one in the middle...the layout I shared in my last entry.

Second...the layout I did for the http://www.digishoptalk.com/ newsletter. The fab Carrie Stephens at http://www.fishscraps.com/ is the designer for the month. I sooooo love this kit...love you Carrie! LOL! Here's Paxtin.

THEN...I got a PM from Emily over at http://www.sweetshoppedesigns.com/. I got Layout of the Week for this:

That's Paxtin again...using Shawna Clingerman's new kit "Pile of Scribbles and Funk" at SSD. Whoooohoooo! I got a gift certificate to the store!

And...I should have a layout featured here tonight (or tomorrow): http://scrapngal.blogspot.com/ for my Scrapnfonts Design Team.

It's nice to have something good to blog about again! I had a rough afternoon with Anakin...which ended in a good evening with the family (thank you God). We lit a few sparklers and did a few confetti poppers (or whatever they are called) and threw a billion poppers (as we call them)...the things you throw at the ground and they pop. Oh...the boys LOVED them. I've got lots of great pictures but I need to save some for future use (there's a contest coming up, not sure if I'm going to enter, but I may...).

Happy 4th of July!!!!!!!!!!
