Potty

For some time now Liam has been talking about poo poo and pee pee. It's been at random times, mostly in the car that he'll talk about these words. Last weekend he was very interested in his cousin who is potty trained going to the bathroom. His cousin is a girl but nonetheless we let him watch her. So Monday night rolls around and we're doing his bedtime routine of bath. He starts fussing, "Potty, potty". "Bud, you're all wet, we'll sit on the potty when you get out of the bathtub." So he starts playing again and a few minutes later starts fussing again, "Potty, potty". "Ok, let's wash you up and dry you off, then we'll sit on the potty." After I dry him off and go to sit on the potty with him he starts stamping his foot, "Book, book" so I go get him a book as I chuckle, come back and darn if we weren't sitting there for about 2 minutes he peed in the toilet. So here's the most impressive part, the potty thing has continued now for the Tuesday, not Wednesday because he went in the tub, and Thursday. I am so impressed by this :)

Ants!

I am so sick of ants invading my house. My husband, neighbor and father-in-law have sprayed and THEY'RE STILL COMING IN MY HOUSE! I just don't get it. My mother-in-law said she had success with washing her floor every night, however, not only do I not have time to do that right now but the ants are literally IN EVERY ROOM of the house. I'm sorry this is a ranting entry but I have felt like I've been living in the dirtiest house in the world with all these ants. The other day there was a steady line of them coming from underneath the baseboard downstairs in the front of the house up the stairs and underneath the baseboard in an extra bedroom on the back of the house. Absolutely ridiculous. I really think they're living in our floors. So I finally was able to vacuum the floors and that made me feel a little bit better. I'll feel even better when they stop coming in the house completely.
