Anyone around?

[lindsay]

Hey. Here. What's with all this rain?

[dogmama22]

Someone from church was supposed to come this morning, but the weather is crazy, so now she's not. Potty training crises averted because I didn't really want to leave him totally naked with a visitor

[dogmama22]

Double win is that I don't have to put on a bra haha

[becole]

H forgot the milk and had to come back for it. This was apparently my fault.

Isn't everything Mom's fault? Oh wait...

[mrscatfarmer13]

Dropping in to say hi! I'm headed into meetings

[hbrockman01]

hi all this rain has me super sleepy and not wanting to function today... coffee it is!

[dogmama22]

Ok we just had another poop accident (my fault for not watching like a hawk like I knew I needed to), BUT I think he is starting to get it! He ran to me right away when he did it and put his face between my legs. Then we went straight to the potty and sat and peed. I hate to celebrate this, and I definitely haven't been hard on him, but he seemed embarrassed that he pooped in the play room. FX we catch the post lunch poop! Thanks for following my potty training saga(s) haha

Girl PT is hawk watching. It's got to make the kid so uncomfortable. Don't look at your phone, don't look at the tv- the kid is waiting for the second you shield your eyes to take a dump! (At least that's what mine did). If I left the room, you could guarantee he would poop. He may need privacy- maybe offer him to poop and look away while he's on the potty or suddenly make yourself busy on your phone.

And even when you watch like a hawk is doesn't always work lol. J came up to me the other day and stood in front of me. I said "do you have to potty?" He says no. Then makes a face. I go "did you just pee yourself?" He say yes. 😝

I would like to go back to the weather we had last Friday. This up and down is killing me. I feel like I'm getting a cold again and the big woke up with a cough.

This is true, the grunt/ poop while you're asking "are you pooping your pants right now?" I learned not to ask, just start dragging him to the toilet.
H actually smelled something the other day and got DS on the toilet and I guess he had a turtle head and pushed it out once H sat him- I can't believe he could smell that.

[bazingaa]

Your H and I both have a super smeller. I can smell poop and 'future' poop from a mile away. It's my mom superpower.

Olds be oldin'

[dogmama22]

Maybe tomorrow we can talk about incontinence?

[mominthemaking14]

Subject change -- talk to me about double strollers .... yes/no, side by side vs. front to back. We were going to get the side by side Britax but its been taken off the market

I've been eyeing the Chicco Bravo for 2, sit and stand. Side by side can be tough to navigate at the zoo because they just barely fit through doorways.

We have a wagon that we can use -- and A loves to ride so I need to have a ride option for her.

They can both sit or the back rider can stand

We have the City Miny GT double. Great at the zoo. It fits through all of the doorways. Plus there's no kicking the person in front of you and both kids can see.

[becole]

I have a front to back double.

It works with any bucket seat or strapped in. It also works with The big sitting facing you in the back or standing and facing forward.

mominthemaking14 - I watched for sales and the consignment store actually called me when one came in but I had already purchased mine. If there is a sale, you can use your 15% Amazon discount.

That's why I'm leaning towards side by side, I can see A being annoyed that she cant see...

[sstwinklinglites]

We're getting a sit / stand. It's a... Joovy? I don't feel like checking right now. I can clip the bucket seat in the front or back. They can sit in front or back. And the back also has the standing option. No to side by side. Way too wide IMO.

The 2017 models should be coming out soon. You might be able to pick up something cheaper as they try to clear out old stock.

That's what I have. I would recommend getting the "plus" or whatever that's a little more and has a bigger basket. The basket is too small for a diaper bag and j wind up throwing diapers and wipes down there.
