been a while

So its been a while and there have been a few things happen that are making me crazy. Ready cause I am about to unload!!!

OK first of all I am seriously annoyed that my son is being so difficult with potty training.  I think it has to do with the fact that I worked in child care for so long and potty trained so many kids that I feel that I should be somewhat of a specialist by now!!! Only my child is hell bent on proving me completely wrong.  He was nearly fully potty trained two weeks ago and then just decided he doesn't want to anymore!! Can you believe that? He told me that he didn't want to potty anymore that he would just wear a diaper instead.  He now tells his teacher that he doesn't like the potty anymore. See I take this very personally even though deep down I know that is just stupid.  I have two thoughts concerning this.... 1.  he had some sort of traumatic experience at school while he had a substitute teacher and is now scared of the potty or...2.  he is just being a head strong poop head (to sensor my self and yes pun intended as well) and feels the need to have control over this issue and to get attention by refraining from using the toilet!

So enough about that.  My husband is working at the Nike outlet now which don't get me wrong I love that he has a job and is bringing in money but wow what a change of pace from an 8-5 job.  He is working a lot in the evenings and weekends which on one hand is great but on the other sucks.  I like that I have some alone time in the evenings after Elliott goes to bed but I seriously hate that he is home in the mornings and sleeps in.  It is so hard for me to get up at seven to workout and start my day when my bed is warm and cozy and also still occupied by my snuggle buddy!! So this morning I didn't get up until 830 and did not work out at all which is bad! we are trying to get skinny here not fat!

so that was my rant and now I am moving on to more happy things.... we took Elliott to see HOP at the theatre on Friday and he absolutely loved it! He sat there still and quiet the whole time eating his popcorn and drinking his juice like such a big boy (so if he can do that why cant he pee on the toilet? OK letting it go!) I was so proud of him.  It was a very cute movie.  He wants to see it again and he doesn't understand that I can not just rent it on netflix like I do Clifford and caillu!
Mike just found that build a bear has a hop bunny so we are going to get it for him for his Easter gift!

I have to start looking for a job for my internship this summer and I am stressing out.  I have to redo my resume which I haven't even looked at in over a year.  This is going to be interesting, I have to take it from childcare to legal serious and I am not sure how.

Well there is so much to get done so I must go now and work on all the crazy things in my life!
