So, I've been out shopping for my gown to wear to the MOTYs. You know...the MOTYs are the annual Mama of the Year Awards. I heard through the grapevine that I'm a shoo in. It's a good thing I didn't do any of the following or I could be out of the running for this
I did NOT do a "happy dance" on the first day back to school.
I have NOT resorted to bribery everytime Logan barely glances at the potty.
I have NOT forgotten to have the boys brush their teeth in...well, I'm not sure how long. I would never have NOT done that..."dats 'gusting!" as Logan would say and especially in light of Logan's potty bribery being sugar-based.
I did NOT seriously consider giving Logan a mohawk haircut just to try and offset Jack's insane hair.
I did NOT sit each of my kids in the sink of a public restroom to wash the sand off them as though it were their private bathtub.
I did NOT bribe Jack with a popsicle if he could convince Logan to pee on a tree at the park.

You are too funny. I am loving the popcicle and peeing on the tree. I think it must have worked, because I do remember popcicle pictures. LOL Isn't potty training boys so fun?
ReplyDeleteThat is too much Carey. I finally gave this Not Me thing a shot for the first time today. Now that I look at yours though Im wondering if mine is just too short. Oh well, Im learning.
ReplyDeleteOMG I am CRACKIN' UP! I love it!

I love it... This is fun...I love my girls..but boys seem like an adventure.
ReplyDeleteNice bribery...I especially love the pee on the tree one! And I did look up the wild hair...also nice! Beats out my bed head for sure!

ReplyDeleteMy middle daughter was bribed to go "number two's" on the potty using lollies, and for months called "number two's" lollies..."Mummy I have to go do a lolly" in the shopping centre is almost funny;-)
Peeing for Popsicles. He must have liked that! What little boy wouldn't pee on a tree for a popsicle?
ReplyDeleteThat's great!
