Potty training day 4 (a day late)

Forgot to do potty training update 4 (yesterday): my first day of potty training on my own!

Bm in the night time pull up. Liam refused to go potty on the toilet in the morning (we are noticing he is like this in the morning, perhaps holding it or maybe he honestly does not need to go?). Due to wet diapers we've had in the mornings (in the past), I started worrying about causing a bladder infection, so I went ahead & took him to the pool (even though I told him he couldn't go if he didn't go potty!). Of course, he went a little in the swim diaper (expected that & was hoping he would).

After swim, I put him in a pull up. We came home, ate lunch & slept most the afternoon away. Pull up wasn't soaked when I removed it (like I expected it to be) but he definitely used it during nap time.

At some point in the afternoon/early evening, he went potty on his toilet w/o me even knowing it (had to of been while I was making dinner, that's the only time my eye wasn't on him!). Kev came home from work & found pee in his potty (it definitely wasn't there after nap time).

Kev and I discussed the progress (or lack thereof). We've agreed to keep trying, but we are offering pull up's if he hasn't gone (we don't want him to get a bladder infection). We will continue like this until I take him to his 24 mo. Check up on the 12th. I'll discuss our progress/concerns with her then and see how she thinks we should proceed. Until then, we don't want to discourage him or cause any undue anxiety or medical problems, so we will just play it by ear!

25 Weeks & Doctor's Appt.

We hit the 25 week mark today!  Hard to believe!  Time is flying so fast... We had our doctor's appointment today (Kevin is out of town Thursday, so we moved it up).  I weighed in at a whopping 109.8!  My nurse and my doctor's response was they are so so proud of me (I felt so special!  Who would have thought GAINING weight would be so exciting?!).  Kevin's response "WHOA!"  And my response to his "WATCH IT Buddy!"  Ha!  So that's almost 14lbs of weight gain!  I really am quite proud of myself... never thought I could do it (although, I spend most of my time eating these days, so it makes sense). The nurse said I "look cute, am starting to show and have that pregnancy waddle."  Considering I did not feel like I was waddling (sometimes I have to because my tailbone hurts so bad) I was not exactly thrilled about this comment, lol!  I asked Kevin if there is something he is forgetting to tell me... ha! The doctor measured my...

One Decision Down... 18+ Years Worth Left to Go!

So, in the scheme of things this probably should have been one of the easiest decisions to make, but Kevin and I just could not agree on a crib bedding set (or theme for that matter) for our little man's nursery.  We finally got it down to two and left those on the computer to stare at for a few days.   Well, Kevin finally compromised (okay--he gave in) and my set won!  So, our son now has a bedding set and a safari themed bedroom! (on order).  Next decision (prone to more disagreements, I'm sure) is finding our little man a name!  If you ask Kevin, his name is Aisen, but I have yet to agree on that (more on the great name debate later!).  For now, here is the set we're ordering our son tonight!  What do you think?!
