Curious George

Well. Victory at the Maurer house. Judah pooped on the pot and won his prize--a trip to the movies with Daddy to see Curious George! Fun! He had a blast...when he came home he had his first accident today! Daddy made him hold it all the way home (6 blocks)....oops.

Sick and tired of...

POOP! Okay. 3 hints. He turns three on April 1st. He is the cutest almost three year old in Pasadena. He poops 3-9 times a day without fail. Yes. You guessed it. Judah. I am so done. I found a little trail to the bathroom where he was not attempting to use the bathroom, but rather wanting to take a bath...as he explains it "it just fell out, mom!" I smiled, cleaned him up, explained that he needs to tell me before attempting these things on his own and then encouraged him to use the potty....maybe one day. Not today and probably not tomorrow....
Oh well. They say they grow up too fast and time flies....I will have to take their word for it and just go with the flow (literally) for another....year?
