June 8th

Well Zachary is potty trained. He did it all on his own and I'm quite proud of him. I do put him in diapers at night still but I think he's only a few weeks away from not needing those. He's very excited to tell anyone that he wears underwear now.

Noah on the otherhand is being lazy. He did underwear for a week just so he could get a toy like was promised to Zach but as soon as he had toy in hand he started wearing a diaper again. I think he's just being lazy. Especially considering that he can go whenever the urge hits him.

This brings me to my next issue. Don, last year, told Nathan it would be fine to pee outside once when we had no place else for him to go. Well it appears that peeing outside is the "cool" thing to do in our house. While at our house its not a big deal, although I would love for them not to do this, they are doing this everywhere. They go to the park and just pull their pants down to pee or the other day we were at J and J nursery and Noah climbs into their big outdoor fountain pulls his pants down and starts to pee in the fountain. Now to figure out a way to convince them that peeing out in the open is not the way you go about doing your business.

Today is my birthday. I feel old. I didn't think turning another year older would make me feel old but for some reason today it has. I made myself a birthday cake since for the past several years no one has given me one. Not that it really matters but for some reason I just want my birthday celebrated today. I also told Don I wanted a lazy day. I didn't want to do laundry or any cooking. Since I highly doubt he'll do any laundry today I guess I won't have a lazy day because I didn't get any laundry done yesterday. If I don't keep up on laundry it piles up and it seems like laundry never gets done.
