Driving Along...

Um, can I just say that babooshka is NOT I repeat NOT an enjoyer of car trips. Um, can I say one more thing, that babooshka's gums are NOT I repeat NOT strong enough to suck a binky. So in the end, you either hold his binky in for 10-minute periods, or listen to him cry. It ended up a combo of both. But hey, after 8 hrs. in the car in a 30 hr. mini- trip, we're lucky nobody got hurt and nobody went completely insane.

3 hours to Burley. Whoever finds entertainment in reading about Isreal is the most easily-entertained person on the planet. True, I did enjoy reading about and studying histioric Christian sights,but still, who really likes this stuff! It was my book report book,so I just had to endure it. Here's what I got out of the timeline and most of the captions

One group killed another group, and then they stayed there for a few decades, until a group came back and killed them again.

But I got it finished. But then, I REALLY had to go to the bathroom. So I just kept my legs shaking until I was able to run inside the house and tinkle.

1 hour to Gooding- The 1 hour video game hour. Sam Fisher came along, so we played games on the iPod and DS. That's it!! Well, actually I just proved myself wrong. I did learn about my journey on Boy Scouts Of America.

4 hours back home again- Babooshka cried. I read. Harry Potter was blaring. That is all I remember.

Oh and PS,

10 minutes ago was the chosen time. The time where the Potty Movie goes back to the library.

Hopefully, he got something out of it, and he can continue a normal POTTY TRAINED life.

It's Official

After reading grueling "Curse you potty training posts" written by Jen and Julie, I knew teaching SamMan how to poo-poo in the potty would not be fun. At all. So when we decided that SamMan needed to learn, I offered Mo to be a team member so she could curse potty training publicly. She said no. She says that I do her blogging for her. Her loss, I guess. Anyway, we decided to start off by getting THE POTTY MOVIE from the library. I don't know what it is about the cheesiness and utter stupidity about that movie, but SamMan has watched that movie an unpresidented 12 times. (Ok fine, 11.) He's on 13. (I give up, 12th). Yesterday we got out the Sesame Street toilet cover and had him sit. No poo or tinkle. But hey, for a first weekend, that's pretty good. He wasn't enthusiastic about the potty idea, but as he watched The Potty Movie 80 billion times, he decided to be like his new favorite movie character Henry, and try it out. I'm going to leave you with an idea of how bad the potty movie really is. The song in the movie's chorus goes like this:

Bye- Bye pee pee.

Bye-Bye poo.

Bye-Bye diapers.

Now I'm through with you.

Do you see what I'm dealing with here?
