I stole this gift away from the lovely administrative assistant Debbie last night in the Board and Staff White Elephant gift exchange. I am hoping that this helps with potty training Kent. When he goes in the real potty, he'll get to flush a coin down the bank toilet. It makes a flushing noise, and I thought he'd love it. So far Kent showed no interest, while Parker slept with it in bed.

Kent crawled in bed with us this morning around 6:15, and as he was sharing my pillow I asked him "Kenters how much do you love mommy?" He replied "I love you tixteen." He then took my hand and started gently tickling his pudgy belly. At first I was angry that he woke us up so early, but then when he's as sweet as pie, he melts my heart.

hopefully he won't think it's okay to throw pennies down the real toilet.

I love those toliets...maybe it will help?? I found putting underwear on Josh has helped him a lot - he'll start on go and feel it get wet and then come and tell me he has to go potty. Now, he's doing much better - the pull-ups I'm only using at night and if we're going to be out for a long time.

I love when the boys come in our room in tbe morning. We have a rule that if it's before 7 AM we put them back in their bed. But, if not they get to lay by us. Really, me b/c Ronnie's already up. They always say, "I wanna lay by you mommy." And that makes me not care what time it is at all!
