...Life Training a Tiny Human...: 2 Steps Forward, 5 Steps Back?

Do you ever have days where you feel like you are here ^ and the world is -------------------- way over ^?

Yeah that is how I have felt today, I felt like I had so much to do, and no time to get it done in. Surprisingly I did get everything done. I think it was just knowing that I had to be at work at 2 pm today and work all evening. Either way, I managed to get everything done that was on my list, and my husband was also able to get everything done on his list (a list I made him) too.

Since I had so much to get done today, and having to be at work in the middle of the afternoon, I didn't focus on Dexter's potty training much. I know, I know that is so awful of me but his grandma watched him for most of the afternoon, and she has 3 kids, they all play together, and I just thought to avoid accidents in the kids' bedrooms then he could just wear a pull up. Don't worry, tomorrow it is back to the normal potty training, FOR SURE!!
Yesterday, he would go pee in the potty, get his sticker, cheer and go back to play. I don't know if he was emptying his entire bladder or not, but it seems like 15 minutes later he would be shouting "I'm peeing, Momma, I'm peeing!!!" Either why he was running to the bathroom, or while standing there like a deer in the headlights in a puddle. I would just say "Uh Oh, you had an accident, they happen sometimes" change his unders and put him on the toilet, and start the process all over again. I know accidents are bound to happen, but it is a bit overwhelming when they happen all at once. Seemingly in the same hour. But the silver lining is that he is recognizing when he is peeing and that he doesn't like his pants wet, and he needs to go to the bathroom. So maybe we aren't taking 5 steps back, maybe its just like 4 and a half.

On a more "adult" note, our house in NY is on the market to be sold, we are trying our hardest to sell it so we can buy the house we want here, but it's just a waiting game. A very stressful waiting game. I don't like not knowing exactly what they are doing with the selling process, but even if we still lived there, we wouldn't know anything until someone made an offer on it. So we are just praying every night, day, minute, hour, second, that someone comes along and makes us an amazing offer that we can't refuse. (On this the day of my daughters wedding) Sorry I couldn't resist a "Godfather" reference.

I suppose that is a good place to end this blog, not very entertaining, but its more of an update. I am very proud of myself for writing every day, my goal is to have a blog every day. Here's to goals!!
