Mother's Day

Well tomorrow is Mother's Day and today is Birthmother's day.

I will be honest I don't get into Mother's Day too much. Sure I appreciate the thought behind it and a day all to myself but honestly what if I wanted June 6th off and be able to sleep in. Why does it have to be a specific day? A mom's job is not easy at all. The hardest job is being a stay at home mom and those of us working mom's don't have it easy either.

I'm honestly not looking forward to when Daddy starts working again. It's nice not having to worry about laundry, cooking supper (most nights), getting Little Man ready in the morning, and most of the cleaning. I did spend a good chunk of today cleaning the bathrooms (Daddy forgets they exist and do need to be cleaned too), vacuuming, dusting and I did a couple loads of laundry (which reminds me, I still need to make our bed as I washed the sheets today). Boy am I exhausted!

OH! And I spent the day hard core potty training Little Man. We sat in the kitchen (with him naked) this morning and played with play-doh. He had a couple accidents but did really well. He would say he peed (even though he didn't), run to the bathroom and pee. He even went poopy in the potty!! I call that success! But as soon as that pullup was on (he needed it for his nap) it was back to the same old 'I went pee in my pull up) all afternoon. I seriously wonder if I should just tell him they don't make pull ups anymore and go from there. Advice would be greatly appreciated. It's frustrating when it seems like he knows what to do but once that pull up in is on he knows he can pee in it and so he does.

Although it gave me a very good reason to disinfect my kitchen floor. :)
