Odd combo for the title, I know.
We're on our way from home work today and Todd is talking with his sister and we get a Kayden update. Turns out, he's gone the whole day wearing his big boy undies with no accidents - even including during his 2 hour nap! They took him to the potty every 30 minutes and he did wonderful! Well, the day this starts just so happens to be the day of our very first Rough Riders baseball game of the season. Needless to say, not much of the game was watched....by Todd, that is. He was good and took Kayden potty every 30 minutes, except for the last 2 potty trips, which I did (and the last one was on the way out to go home, so I can't really count that one). All in all, Kayden really did well. I'm so proud of him! He's not telling us if he needs to go, but he's at least holding it. We only had 2 accidents, but that's just because he had a lot to drink in those 30 minutes between potty runs. I just have to keep reminding him that we don't tinkle in our big boy undies but on the big boy potty. If I keep reminding him during that 30 minutes, he holds it. So, we'll keep trying this throughout the weekend and see how quickly he takes to this. I hope it's really quick b/c I would love to have him out of diapers - permanently - by the time baby #2 arrives....or somehwere very soon after. I'd rather not have 2 kids in diapers. Ugh, the cost of diapers is outrageous for something they just poop and pee in.
Exactly 1 week from this very minute, we will have mystery baby here with us!! Wow, that just barely occurred to me as I write this post. It's a little scary yet exciting. as the days go by, I find that I am getting more nervous. I can and can't believe that this day is finally here. I feel like I'm having our first baby all over again! I don't know why, but I do. I think I might just be nervous that I'll forget something, whether it's how to nurse, bathe, hold, etc the baby. I don't know, but it's a strange feeling. Oh, how our world will change in 1 week!!....all for the good, of course.
I'm so excited that you don't know if you are having a boy or a girl! We did that with Hudson and it was so fun. I think we will do that with all of our kids. However many that will end up being is a mystery! Good luck! I hope all goes well. I so wish we could come visit. Maybe someday soon we will be able to.
