We thought Landon had the potty thing licked. He was even wearing big boy underwear some days. Then the last few days, he's decided to slide...again. So we had a discussion this morning; here is an excerpt:
Mommy: "How come you don't put that potty in the potty anymore?"
Landon: "I'm too busy." (typical male)
Mommy: "Too busy doing what?"
Landon: (using fingers to count) "Playing with monster trucks, making car machines, fighting fires, things like that (with a shrug of the shoulders)."
Mommy: "Well, maybe we just shouldn't play those things until you can use the potty again, so you're not so busy."
Landon: "But who will play with those things?"
Mommy: "Nobody, until you start going potty again."
Landon: "I just won't play with you anymore, Mommy, how's that deal?"
Mommy: "But..."
Landon: "I'm just joking you Mommy. I love you, but I love going potty in my diaper too!"
Will I win this battle? What do I have to do to convince this boy to keep up his good efforts?!?!?!
Also today:
Landon and I hosted the 'hood playdate this morning. 9 kids running around having fun (we were 4 short), moms having fun too...$0. Breakfast for the clan...$20. Clean up afterwards...priceless!
We went out for dinner tonight with some other moms and daughters whose hubby's/daddy's were out of town also. Claire says "It's a girls night out!" Landon says "But I want to go, where am I going Mommy...(sobbing)". I told Landon he was coming too..."But I'm no girl, yuck!"
