I Fear It Yet I Love It

We are entering a new era in the house of Wise. Potty Training. Yipes. Diapers are costing way too much and Monkey Boy knows how to follow commands. I've been having some issues with Pampers lately. He wears size 6 and weighs almost 47 pounds. Therein lies a huge problem. He's got some junk in his trunk. He's a big boy. It's all good though. The tabs keep breaking off of the diapers and no matter what I do, there they are: on the floor, in his bed, in Peanut's mouth because she finds them on said floor or bed. Sometimes we use Huggies but they don't seem to hold has much at night as the Pampers.

This weekend I picked up some underwear for him. We also got some of these and some of these. Being the idiot that I am, I thought that 9 pairs would do us well. Yeah no, 3 stinky accidents and 5 wet ones, yeah I'll be doing laundry every other day. I think I'll run out tonight and get some of these and maybe even some of these. He loves to go potty and I thank the good Lord for that! When he went poop in the potty, I thought I would cry. Until you've tried potty training a kid, an attention span limited one at that, you have no idea what going poop in a potty means. Most kids are terrified to do that. They'd rather poop in the underwear. He did that too a couple times. Things are going well though. We take him in every fifteen minutes (30 minutes when it's just me home with both kids). Maybe seeing Monkey Boy go potty will help Peanut when she gets old enough. We'll have to wait and see.

What? Oh, yes, laundry, I'm coming.

Let me know how it goes. We're almost there.

PS - Huggies overnites rule (I know, I'm a Pamper Cruiser Mom too).

Customer Appreciation Day

Dear Crotchety Broad, While I love my job and think it's the easiest one in the world to have, I do not think dealing with your ass was easy. Here are some highlights from my fabulous time with you: When your cashier is ringing up your precious produce, putting the codes in (from memory thank you very much), don't start trash talking her. I didn't hear you ask if I needed help because, well, um, I was busy ringing your shit up. When I look up because I heard something , don't look at me and say, " HELLO??" all sarcastic and shit. I will squish your tomatos, avocados and bread. When I ask if you have coupons, that's generally a sign that I am not a mind reader, can't see in your purse and can't predict the future (contrary to what you may think dear customer). As a refresher, here's our coversation: Loverly Cashier: Did you have any coupons today ma'am? (and that ma'am part may or may not have been choked out of my throat) Crotchety Broa...

She Was Heartbroken

After reading about Kim and Reggie breaking up, the Monkey had a moment of silence to reflect on the love that is no longer there. And then she ate part of the page. Fiber! She needs fiber ya know! She wasn't as into the Saved By The Bell article like her favorite Auntie was (ahem) but she did kiss Zack Morris. No lie. Puckered right on up and layed one on him. He hasn't been the same since.
