I've been telling myself that for months now, but I'm serious. I'm not going to have any idea what happened in 2009 when I go to scrapbook it and I'm not going to let that happen to 2010 too! So, what's up?
Well, Morgan's fully potty trained. WooHoo! For about 3 weeks now. His little buddy Payton started using the toilet and that's all he seemed to need. We had been trying for a couple of weeks and he was doing very well going pee but #2, that was a different story. He knew when he had to go. He just wouldn't. I was getting very frustrated and one day, after Morgan pooped in his underwear, CJ said "That's it. You're done. You know when you have to go and there's no reason for you not to use the toilet." Then he took his blankey away from him and hung it with a thumbtack on the wall outside the bathroom just high enough that Morgan couldn't reach it (sounds cruel I know). He told Morgan he could have it back as soon as he pooped in the potty, and that's all she wrote. He wasn't allowed to nap with it that day and he wasn't allowed to take it to bed that night. And the next morning he pooped in the potty. AMAZING. The day after that he said, "poop in the potty not in my underwear because CJ take my blankey." haha He was so cute, and we've not had an accident since. Whatever works right?
Tanner and Grace have started baseball. CJ is coaching Tanner's team this year. Grace has the same coach she had in the fall. They both had their first games last night and both teams won. Yeah!
We made a trip to the dentist yesterday and got sealants put on Tanner's permanent molars, and Grace got 2 cavities filled. She did really well. They gave her an injection to numb her jaw and the whole left side of her face was droopy for several hours. Kinda freaked me out because they said "her jaw would be numb for a couple of hours". Well, to me "a couple" is 2-3. And her jaw does not mean the whole side of her face. It looked like she had had a stroke. She was complaining that her eye felt funny and her cheek and mouth were just sagging. She had the procedure done at 3:30 and at 7:30 when her baseball game started her face was still droopy. I was a little paranoid. While she was warming up for her baseball game she said "mommy, I have a goofy smile" I said "did someone tell you that?" she said "no I can feel it!" hehe She was right. By the time she got to bed at 9:30 I could tell it was getting better. I was very relieved. This morning her beautiful little face was perfect again :-)
I guess that's all for now. Have a great week. I'm going to have a very busy one! A big cake to do, Stamp Camp, and 3 baseball games all over the next 3 days. Wish me luck!
