To Be a Kid Again!

I just love watching the boys get all excited about little things in life that are normal occurances. I love how they look out the window each day and watch that bus go by each morning. When Monday rolls around they both are excited to see the trash man pick up our trash. And everyday we get to see the mail lady!! Or when the dryer buzzes or the microwave dings and they both say, "It's done!" The excitement they have on their faces when I am done vacuuming. Drew always says, "Mommy, you done, you put the vaccum away now!" The excitement of snack time when they get a cracker or some cheerios. I love it when lunch time rolls around and we get to sing the "Uh-oh Spaghetti Oh's" song. When we go to Walmart and they both get a sticker. Just the little things in life that put a smile on their faces! My favorite is when daddy comes home. The noise level sky rockets! Just seeing them yell "Daddy!" What a wonderful life they have, not a care in the world!

My Three Year Old!

Now, I am not wanting to complain here, but what is a mother to do about getting her strong willed boy to poop on the potty?! I have done everything from bribing him with a new Gordon (which is still sitting on the bookshelf) to a big monster cookie from the cookie store. We have sat for hours on the potty, but he has made up his mind not to do it. Now, he has done it a few times, but has no interest in it whatsoever right now. He would rather poop in his diaper or the tub, last night it happened again, and not in the potty. He actually blamed last nights incident on poor Tyler, but he finally confessed it was him. He said, "I pooped mommy, it was me, I pooped." Atleast he is an honest little fella! I need some help!! Any suggestions for a desperate mom?!

Oh, Wal-Mart!!!

Where have all the good wonderful bananas gone?!!!! Since moving to SL, I have wondered that!! I have come to the conclusion that it doesn't matter how long I stand and stare at the banana table I can never find that wonderful bunch of bananas. Just the other day, it took me about 5 minutes to find the right bananas and they were still somewhat bruised!! Plus, I have also noticed that my milk goes bad just after I buy it within a couple of days! What is happening to Wal-Mart? I will have to shop somewhere else! As Bill would say "Sam Walton would not be very happy!"
