Pottty Training 101






After we left Chicago, we enjoyed a day and a half at Pop Pop and Re Re's in Louisville. Sam got to see Uncle Rich and Aunt Rachel again, and meet his Aunt Sis, Uncle Shawn and his cousin Leah. Leah was adopted from China two years ago and is quite the little peach! Sam had a great time playing all day with Leah and Re Re. Oh, before we left, I signed up for Ironman Louisville 2008....

Back to the reality! The past few days we have been talking about getting Sam back on the potty training schedule again. We have successfully untrained him from anything he knew about using the potty from the orphanage. He is almost 3 and word has it that 3 years is the magic age for boys. So, tonight, at 6:10 PM Sam donned a pair of big boy pants. At 6:12 PM, he said "potty" and was taken quickly to the toilet. At 6:14 PM in the laundry room, Sam went in his big boy pants and the floor. Just a minor setback. At least he was saying potty as it ran onto the floor.

If you remember your brother Rich and his potty training 20+ years ago, we all threw up our hands and decided maybe his first grade teachers could help! He just had better things to do! Sorry Rich ;-)

It was great to have the whole family together, especially those two grandkids! They are so darn cute!

Sam has such a awesome personality and great sense of humor!

Sam, Pop-pop and Grammy Re love you very much!
