52 more days and counting!!!

I know I'm such a kid at heart... LOL!!! I think that I'm more excited than Steven, however I'm super excited to get outta this heat!!! This summer has been a scorcher!!! Not only has it been super hot, its been super humid. What happen to the "dry heat" of the valley of the sun? This is the question I've been asking myself all summer.

So can I say I'm so super excited that potty training is over!!! This makes me super happy!!! Not only did he just do it on his own, you don't even have to remind him to go pee. You know how some kids get to playing and you have to remind them to pee, not Steven, he has totally figured it out!!! It sucks that it took him so long to figure out that it was a good thing to go potty... LOL!!!!

So Disneyland here we come... and boy are we excited!!!!! I'm going to add an old picture of the Disneyland Marquee, the old one that is, since there isn't one anymore now that the old parking lot is gone!!!

69 more days... and potty training complete!!!

Yup that's right... we are done with potty training. Steven decided all on his own yesterday that he would finally do what he needed to do!!! What a great day it was for all of us!!! With that being said, I'm super excited that we can now go places and not worry about having to have diapers... and not worry about him peeing his pants. I know that we may have an accident here or there... but he has not had an accident since he decided he was gonna let whatever his fear of going potty was go!!! So with that being said, thank you for all of the love, support, advise and prayers... we now have a big boy that doesn't wear diapers. He is so good that he just goes on his own. This morning he woke up and went potty before we even woke up!!!
69 more days to go and we will be in the Happiest Place on Earth!!! Oh Mickey how I can't wait to see you again!!! Yeah I know I'm a big kid and I can't wait to go and be diaper free!!!

76 more days and potty training again!!!

UGH!!!! So we are trying the potty training thing again. It's been exhausting the last couple of days. I'm trying to stay calm. This kid has such good control of his bladder that he can hold it for hours which isn't good. He is so stubborn that he will not pee in the potty. He just absolutely refuses. I'm hoping that we can finish the potty training before we leave to Disneyland in 76 days. Yes some may say that is a long time and that I have plenty of time... well this stubborn kid may take the entire 76 days. So please pray for me that I do not kill him in the next 76 days... and also please pray for my mom who tends to give in to what ever he wants and will just buy diapers so she doesn't have to hear him cry!!! She has promised that she will not do this, but we'll see!!! So please send lots of prayers our way!!!

Disneyland again!!

So we are going back to Disneyland... and boy oh boy we can't wait. I think that Steven has the Disney bug just like his mommy. I've created a monster... but then again, I'm excited because that means I can go every year still!! I'm looking forward to this trip because we are staying at Disney's Grand Californian Hotel. Anyway... we are super excited for our next trip and I just wanted to share.

Back to the gym!!

So yesterday I started to eat healthy again... I know pretty crazy!!! It has been a year since I graduated and still have this extra nursing school weight I gained. Well since we are going back to Disneyland in September I think that it will be a good idea to loose this extra weight before we go... at least some of it... LOL!!! So back to the gym I go and eating less with each meal. I also started taking QT... you know the same stuff the Kardashian sisters have taken. I like it because you don't have to take it 30 minutes before a meal, as a matter of fact you take it between meals of before you work out. I also heard on the Biggest Loser, that if you do 30 minutes of cardio every day and eat a well balanced diet you will loose weight... so here I go back to the gym... wish me luck!!!

Too young for a Wii!!

So before Christmas when I had decided that I thought I might want to get a Wii for Steven from Santa my mom says to me, "I think he is too young for that don't you?" So I thought about it and decided that he really wasn't too young, and that it would be really good for his hand/eye coordination. So I got the Wii. Well now my mo is totally eating her words, this kid figures out every game that we have so far. He bowls so well that he beats us all. He loves it and I'm so glad that I decided to make this investment and buy it. And by the way, my mom loves to play too. Who'd have ever thought, the woman who hates video game systems, the same one who would always down play them to me as a kid, loves to play as well. As a matter of fact I've called on my way home from work on a couple of occasions and she and Steven are bowling... LOL!!! Steven has just informed me today that he is tired from waiting for me to finish on the computer and he wants to play tennis. So since I've decided to hang out with him today I guess we'd better fire up the Wii!!!

Screeming Child

So this morning I wake up to Steven throwing a hissy fit and my mom screaming "you'd better get up and make him put his clothes on!" So I roll outta bed to see Steven running around in just a t-shirt and crying. He doesn't wanna put his pants on, he says that he doesn't like them. Mind you the pants my mom is trying to put on are pants that he has worn a ton of times, and all of a sudden he doesn't like these pants. Apparently they are too big for him and he doesn't want to wear pants that are too big. So he's too tall for a 2t and 3t however the 3t and 4t don't fit him in the waist they are way too big and fall off. So he's throwing a fit because the pants are too big in the waist and will fall off. So I make him put the jeans on and he's trowing a fit, I ask him to hand me the socks that he has already taken off in a fit and he kicks them off of the bed. I spank his little butt and he's screaming as if I've pulled his head off. He is throwing a fit on the bed. I'm not sure what I'm gonna do with him at this point. What do you do with a 4 year old that is so stubborn and thinks its his way or no way?!?!?!?!?!
