My son, Alexander is home YAY! His dad and I split custody %50. It's hard to have him out of the house that much but it's working. He's happy and I believe his dad is happy (not really, but more on that later) we are happy though. My little ones have missed him a lot and he's such a big part of our family it certainly does feel complete now that he's back home.
My little guy....well I've pretty much slacked on the potty training. I just couldn't keep up the fight all the time. I also was a going crazy after two accidents in a day. So I chalked it up to he's (I'm) not ready and left it alone. Then last Friday I simply asked " Do you want to sit on the toilet?" He said yep! and while we waited...it happened!! OMG!!! I wanted to scream, I was SOOOO freakin' excited!! but I knew I would scare the crap out of him (pun intended) so I just remained calm and we finished up and then we celebrated with a mini candy bar and a call to his dad. Amazing...no more pull ups aside from one at night. He's done a great job and he's so proud of himself. A new found freedom for him and for me, both of which weigh pretty heavily.
BAWK! BAWK! Yes, we've got chickens! Sometimes even I can't believe it! But after being around a few different families with chickens our family decided to go for it. They are so fun and adding so much life to our home. All of us take a great interest in them, including my man boy. They are about a month old and I am looking forward to blogging about them from time to time.
I had a great summer and I am looking forward to the Fall. More on all the above topics, plus...babysitting, medals and a new job, oh and the real shocker, CAC meetings otherwise known as "The PTA". (insert stabbing motion in addition to horror music here).
Much love until then...
XO,
Tracy!
