Potty Training: Week 1 | 5QF

Happy Friday everyone! I just have to brag here for a minute about our first week of potty training with Bryce. I am proud to say that it has been a huge success so far! When I posted my Weekend Recap on Tuesday, I told you all how he went to school in underwear for the first time on Monday and didn't have any accidents. Well, Tuesday wasn't quite as great. He was dry when he woke up, so Brian put him on the potty but he didn't go. Unfortunately, he decided to pee 5 minutes later, at the table while he was eating breakfast. He also had an accident at school like 15 minutes before I picked him up. Wednesday and Thursday were just like Monday, though, and he didn't have any accidents all day! We even went out to dinner Thursday night, and even though we made several trips to the bathroom, he did great!

I just can't believe how well he is doing in such a short period of time! I also can't believe that other than night time, we are DONE with diapers in this house! Woo hoo! I am so over the moon excited about this, and so proud of my big boy!

I'm off today and I'm headed to the dermatologist to get a couple of things checked out, and then I'm off to attempt to get something done with my hair. I loved the last cut I got...until I had to style my hair myself. For the last month my hair has looked absolutely ridiculous, so I am hoping he can cut it differently so that I can do something with it. Of course I have to get those grays covered up too.

Mama came up for the weekend, and she is taking the kids to Sea World today...by herself. She is one brave woman! I don't go to Sea World (something about keeping those huge whales in tiny little pools just doesn't sit right with me) but the kids love it, and my mom enjoys taking them. Then Saturday we are off to the screening of The Secret World of Arrietty, and since we will be at Downtown Disney, Rylie wants to eat at Rainforest Cafe. I am hoping that Sunday will just be a quiet day around the house and that I will be able to get some chores done while the kids entertain Mama.

Have a great weekend everyone!

1. How often do you shave your legs in the winter?

That all depends on how long our cold snaps last. Since we alternate between jeans and shorts here in Florida during our "winter" season, if it is warm for a long period of time like it has been, I shave every other day or so. But if it stays cold for a while, what's the point? LOL I do get irritated after a few days of not shaving, so I don't go very long without doing so. Four or five days max!

2. Valentine's Day cards for your spouse: funny or romantic?

Both. I have been known to get Brian more than one card. He started that, though. I usually receive several cards from him.

3. What are you most looking forward to about spring?

The adorable baseball line of clothes from Gymboree!

4. What's your favorite way to pamper yourself?

Spa day! There is nothing more relaxing than spending the day getting a massage, facial, and pedicure. I could sure use one of those right now!

5. Does your tax return go into savings or do you spend it instantly?

Savings? What is that? I have two kids in daycare!
