I’ve always been a little apart from the crowd, sort of walked to the beat of my own drum, and I was always happy this way. The truth is, I think many of us who do things our own way and have a more unique way of looking at the world are really happy with […]
It’s time. I really, really, really want to potty train my son. I kept saying that I’ll let it happen when it happens, and never pushed for it, but little man is understanding more now, communicating, and I can’t take the smelly diapers anymore (and with another baby coming, twice the smelly diapers??? Noooooooooo!!!!!!). I’ve […]
-
Oh I remember the days of potty training my boys. We sat them down to start and then as they got older and tall enough we let them go in with daddy to learn. Definitely a lot of accidents. My second son was really hard to potty train and so more often than not when I was at home with him (and no one was over of course) I let him go sans training pants or in regular underwear b/c the training pants were just like a diaper to him even the coolness didn’t affect him. but he didn’t like being bare or in regular underwear when training. Just feel it out as you go and you will know what does and doesn’t work for you all 🙂
-
I dont have any advice since I have two girls but all I can say is Good luck. I do know that with both boys and girls you should keep them in underwear. It can get messes but they can feel the wetness more rather than in diapers.
-
It took me ten years to get my son potty trained. He’s autistic. Sorry I can’t help.
-
With all of my kids I watched for signs that they were ready, like an interest in sitting on the toilet and recognizing when they had to go. With the boys, we started by teaching them to sit, and didn’t worry about standing to pee until they mastered knowing when they had to go. Good luck!
-
Wow, your son was born 2 months after my daughter and I haven’t started potty training her yet! I feel there’s no rush. I had 2 boys in diapers at the same time and it was fine (they were 20 months apart in age).
I trained my first son the month he turned 3 and my second son was 3 1/2 (he was more stubborn). I had them wear underwear around the house. That’s why you might want to wait a few months until the weather is warmer so your son doesn’t get too cold. My older son liked to use Cheerios as targets in the potty. My younger son liked to earn rewards like stickers and candy for using the potty. My younger son, although older when he was trained, never had an accident. I think he was just more mature and ready for training, so he was trained the first day.
I honestly think your son is too young but it’s your call! Oh, and pull ups didn’t work for us. They’re just too much like diapers.
I’ll be training our daughter this summer when she’s closer to turning 3. I’m hoping (fingers crossed) that girls are easy to train as everyone seems to say.
-
Definitely don’t rush it – wait until he is showing interest. Having someone (male) model what is supposed to happen in the bathroom definitely helps, as do those annoying videos and books.
-
After 2 girls that were pretty easy, my son was difficult. I feel the best way was to put them right in underwear during the day and nix the Pullups all together. Diapers at night/nap of course. When they pee/poop in regular underwear, hopefully they will see it feels different and yucky, so they’ll know to go to the potty instead.
Every kid is different. My oldest was 17 months and never looked back, but my son was after his 3rd birthday. When they’re ready, they’re ready. Age means nothing to me.
Try it and see how it goes, that’s the only way to tell. Good luck!
-
I would highly recommend a chair that sits on the floor and one that goes over the actual seat. My son was a nightmare, did great peeing, pooping no way was he doing it. Gavyn wanted to stand just like daddy, refused to sit which is why we had troubles with him pooping, and being stubborn on top of that didn’t help.
If your son is the same way I’ve heard the Little Looster is a wonderful stool plus I met her at Reviewer’s Retreat last year, the stool looks fab.
There are going to be accidents. We tried to go in every half hour with both of our kids. Rewards, charts do miraculous things with kids. Patience is the key here mama. You’ll do fine, he’ll do fine. Congratulate, give a small reward(we did M&Ms for Zoe) and just go with the flow.
-
I’m not looking forward to potty training.. no advice but I’m reading others! 🙂
-
We used trial and error… my husband took him every time he went… then, we went to “big boy underwear” and let him go naked the first few days…. just to be able to see when he needed to go 🙂 good luck
-
One more thing.. loved the little looster …. we were able to review one… awesome
-
We are potty training right now, too! Sigh.
-
Gosh It’s been so long ago! I’ve heard putting cheerios in the bowl for to “aim” at works.
-
Patience is my best advice. I struggled with that the most. Everyone else has it on the big stuff.
-
I don’t have any advice on potty training boys obviously because I don’t have one. I think the potty training boot camp of just focusing completely on potty training for a weekend is the only way we would have got through to Cakes. We tried the going naked route all the time and that didn’t make a difference – we just got a lot of pee on the rug which resulted in tons of extra cleaning. It’s all trial and error but is definitely a battle of wills and patience is a necessity.
-
I only have a daughter so I don’t have any tips. Still, I wish you the best – just stick with it and hang in there! So cute how he used the toilet paper 🙂
-
Lots of naked time will be the best bet I think. 🙂 Hunter had a lot of accidents but they lasted a week! And lots of patience. And rewards!
-
With my son, we wait till he is ready. We’ve done this with everything. It’s what works best for him. When he was ready to potty train — he had it in 3 days. He only peed the bed 2 times after we took the pull ups off at night which was on his 3rd birthday. He’s nine, now. Good luck!
-
Mine just sort of did it on their own, granted they were closer to 4 yrs old, but it was a lot less stress that way
-
I completely understand what you mean by being scared. We potty trained our twin boys and although it went well (ooookkk, so it went semi-well … let’s just say we got through it), we’re now potty training our daughter, and I’m nervous again, almost as if it’s my first time.
Hang in there, it gets better and – as I’m sure you can guess – it’s worth it!
Thanks for stopping by my blog today. Yours is absolutely lovely! I found you on Facebook and can’t wait to keep up …
Cheers ~

Reading with Joey
I was one of the lucky invitees to the Courageous movie premiere last June, and it was truly inspirational. Courageous is the fourth Christian family movie created by the Kendrick brothers, who also wrote and produce Flywheel, Facing The Giants, and Fireproof. Last night was the first time my husband watched the movie, and as […]
-
This sounds like a great movie.
-
I had never heard about this movie. I’ll have to check it out!
-
This sounds good! Thanks for the post.
-
really interesting. Facing the Giants and Fireproof sound like movies I would luv to see
-
I never heard of this movie before. I looks like a good one.
-
Sounds like a wonderful movie!
-
My mother told us that before she’d give us her blessing for marriage, we had to watch “Fireproof.” She was partly kidding, but it got the point across that it was a film we should watch for help with a successful marriage. It sounds like “Courageous” is just as inspirational.
-
We have these movies and love them. They are such great films and have wonderful messages.
-
thank you for posting this..being from albany….. i have heard of it… thanks again
-
I saw Fireproof recently, and love it. I’ll be checking out the others as well.
-
THis looks like a good movie.
-
It’s great, but the focus is definitely fathers…the stats about children who don’t have dads, how even being around but not really attentive to your children is neglect, how not being a good role model is also being a bad father. It’s very good.
-
You know, I should really buy them…as much as I love them all and want to see them all the time, I can’t believe I never did.
-
I’m assuming this is out on DVD now. I saw Fireproof in the theater and I didn’t like that because of the acting.
-
I’ve always wanted to see these movies but I haven’t yet. Thanks for the reviews. I’ll just skip a step and buy them all:)
-
I just saw this movie on TBN and it was a very good picture with the team putting God first… all things are possible!!!
It’s winter time, the perfect time of year to make delicious soups and hearty chilis, especially if you face cold New York winters like we do.

My favorite chili recipe is a lowfat one I found a few years back. Really simple. Brown ground turkey, add chili seasoned diced tomatoes (or add your own chili seasoning to taste) add 2 or so cups of water. Simmerfor 30 minutes. Add a can of corn and a can of black beans. Season with salt and pepper. Simmer for another 15-20 minutes. Enjoy!

I love that pot, my Mom had one like that before I broke it>>thank you for the chance to win it!
-
I make a spicy Tomato-Veggie soup using V8 tomato juice as the base. The recipe is 1 can of V8 Tomato Juice (or any brand) add onion, garlic, veggies (any, I often use frozen,) can of any beans you like (I use what’s on hand) and season with red pepper to taste. It’s also easy enough to add browned meats, if you like–ground or chunks.

I like to add corn to a basic chili recipe, and I always do it in the crock pot. Another great twist is to add a can of baked beans! It gives the chili a sweet accent, which is nice because the rest of it is quite spicy!

Laundry in our home is done by my husband, and quite often he is so tired from a busy work week that he can only do one load of laundry. Unfortunately, this means that the whites sit around waiting to be washed for over a week, which isn’t good if they have soils and stains […]
-
I only wash with cold water
-
Do laundry on a regular basis instead of letting it build up.
-
I add a cup of white vinegar to each load to set the colors. Thanks so much for the fantastic giveaway!
Renee Walters
Bored2quickly@hotmail.com -
I you put it in with the colors every time it will stop the “OH NO” when you open the washer!
-
I could wash more often because would not have to wait for the right sorting!
-
I started making my own laundry detergent…it cost about $9 and has lasted me 8 months for a family of 4 🙂
-
this would save time because my family is always on the go
amy16323(at)gmail(dot)com -
I have no tip… however, I have two super messy children, and I need all the help I can get! 🙂
-
I try to keep laundry sorted before it’s time to do it. That way, in case anything is wet, colors won’t bleed together while they’re waiting to be washed, but also, and more importantly, I can see what kind of load I need to do next. It saves me a step, which is always a good thing!
Thanks!

Laundry Tip: Use denture cleaner on a stain by mixing it with water.
-
This would be great for when my boyfriend does the laundry. I wouldn’t have to worry about him ruining the clothes!
-
This would cut down the amount of loads I do a week! I would love to wash all my colors together!
-
When dating my future husband , we had to stop at a laudramat so that he could do a load of wash. Yep everything in 1 load. Why ? It would cost more to sort and separate. And i still married him. Go figure. He doesn’t have one shade of color clothing anymore. He certainly could have used the new Shout product.
-
I pre sort everything as it gets dirtied, and I wash everything in cold water

My laundry disaster was when the gadget that tells it when to stop filling with water broke and flooded the basement!
-
I have to use public laundry facilities, so if I can’t wash it in hot water, I handwash. Thanks for the giveaway.
-
My mom always told me to seperate my darks from my whites but with this product that tip wouldn’t apply and I could wash everything in one load and save water and money.
-
This product would be great to use since we usually put colors and whites in together. One time, my partner put his new scrubs in with white t-shirts and the teal color bled all over them! Hopefully this would prevent that from happening again.

Best Laundry Tips…Turning Things Inside Out. and Also Not Always Drying it in the Dryer.
and Fabric Softener is your friend -
I saw the Shout with Oxy sheets at the store and wondered about them – I love the Shout Sheets and have used them for years!!
-
no more sorting and trying to figure out what whites and red look like together
vmkids3 at msn dot com -
Its pretty amazing you can wash colors and whites together.
-
This would be a great thing to have in our home as I try to teach my son with special needs, how to do laundry. We want him to have more independence, but it’s sure been hard on his laundry!
-
I have recently seen this on a TN commercial. I think it is a great idea. It would really cut down on those laundry day accidents. Or accidents anyday your husband is doing the laundry!
-
A laundry disaster was when I didn’t see my husband’s diesel soaked clothes on the bottom of the pile and washed it with our little guys clothes. Everything ended up smelling like the diesel fuel. Gross.
-
Just the other day, my husband put my wool sweater in the dryer. It now fits my right arm only. lol
-
This would make my life easier by letting me mix colors
-
i remember a huge laundry disaster… somehow my daughter had crayons in her pockets and they went through the wash and into the dryer…. i never found the actual crayons but i found the red and green stains all over our JEANS.. talk about an expensive accident… my son’s baseball pants were in that load too… thanks clallen at ntin dot net
-
My son’s basketball jersey is red and I hate having to do a seperate load twice a week. This would help me out alot! Thank you!
-
This would be great because I could save time rather then spending it sorting the wash I could do less loads.
cmarquez482(at)ymail(dot)com
-
This product would make my life easier because I have so much dark denim that tends to bleed in the wash, this would make my life so much easier!
-
I use this all the time, I’m a quilter and when I pre-wash my fabric for each quilt, I always use
Shout Color Catcher to make sure none of the fabric runs. I love the product. -
This would make life easier so I didnt have to do so many seperate load. I always have never ending laundry!
-
I should shout Color catcher. It reduces so much laundry time having to sort through everyone’s clothes before it goes into the washer! My only other type would be to use Purex Crystals lol I love those things!!
-
I am disabled. Instead of checking the machine before I threw in a load of whites. I opted to not stand. I guess I had thrown in a red tshirt because everything came out pink.
-
I put my colors and white in separate baskets for easy laundry.
-
my problem is grease i think this would help me
-
It always happens when a dark clothing gets in with my light clothing, such as my light pink sweatshirt no has a blue tint to it, cause it got put in with the jeans, not happy. This would be so great to try and keep my clothes the right color!
-
This product would help so I wouldnt have to worry if I accidentally mixed reds and whites.
-
Love to experiment with laundry products.
-
This would make my life easier because I don’t like to sort items. So I tend to have some oops moments.
-
6 small children…plus my husband and myself, use cloth diapers too….I do 6 or more loads of laundry every.single.day! Hows that for a laundry story!! scary huh???

We stumbled over here coming from a different page and thought I should check things out. I like what I see so i am just following you. Look forward to looking over your web page again.
Nice selection of inspirational ones, Penelope!
It takes time to get comfy withourselves, but when we do, it feels pretty darn good!
This is a hard one for me. Sometimes I find that I “exist” because i’m waiting for some event or thing in life to happen and I don’t live life while I am waiting. I want to be better with this.
A huge difference. And I feel like I just exist a lot lately. 🙁
I live by so many of these quotes. I’m going to have to pin these!
These
Great quotes, love them!
I love these. Thanks for sharing.
I heard a great one today when they were talking about Etta James passing and it was something like “You don’t want to pass away with your music still inside you.” I thought that was really beautiful and spoke to so many things that we all hold in or are afraid to risk being judged (or loved) for. Thank you for sharing your inspiring quotes. And even though I don’t have a baby, I thoroughly enjoyed your Potty Training post. I know it will be challenging, but I know you’ll do great with this phase of Little Man’s life, but yes, don’t be afraid to enlist the hubby to show him how that all works. =)
Great quotes! I love the first one so true.
Wonderful – thanks!
I love these quotes. One of my favorite is from a Nicki Minaj song where Drake says “Everybody dies but not everybody lives” So true.
So very true! I know exactly what you mean. Great pics!
Love the popularity is for mediocre people one!
I love this one: “It is better to be hated for who you are, than loved for you are not.”
Great quotes. Thanks for sharing!
I just love these quotes.
Wonderful quote Penelope! I especially love the one ‘There is no greater tragedy than being afraid to live the rest of your story’. That rings so true with me. Thanks for sharing these 🙂
Each is so true! Thanks for posting them.
These are such great quotes. Blending in my doing what society tells you to do will not make you any happier. You said it perfectly live, don’t just exist.
Beautiful quotes thank you for sharing
Great quotes Penelope! We should always be true to ourselves–we will discover so much about ourselves, others, and life when we do. 🙂
Great quotes P!
I love the quotes.
Agree (and we miss out on so much when we live to be approved of by others)
These are beautiful quotes! I especially like the one about popularity being mediocre. 🙂
