Weekend Round-Up

So, how I could have neglected to post this, I'll never know. But...Garrett is totally potty-trained. YAY! He's been that way for awhile. Since I'd had such a long go of it with other children, I took a much more laisse faire approach with Garrett. I'd gently suggest it, try for a bit, and back off when he would not take the bait. I would suggest different tactics and see which ones seemed to pique his interest.

(Hmmm, I am debating if I should post the hilarious one that DID take. Seeing as it is about potty-training it might be gross. But then maybe it would help some other potty-trainer out there. See my dilemma? Maybe I'll post it below, and you can turn away if you don't want to read about it. ;) )

The other funny weekend thing was I got my laptop back! Finally! Oh, I was so happy. Usually they send it via Overnight Express, but for some reason, the first leg of the trip of me shipping it in, it went by Ground and took over a week to GET to Dell. Then they shipped it back quickly, but I was not expecting it and I missed the Fed Ex guy. D'oh. Anyway, the stars aligned and the Fed Ex man and I exchanged my signature for the laptop, and all was right with the world....until...(duh, duh, dunnnnn....) the new a/c adapter they decided to send along with my laptop turned out to be a dud and would not charge my laptop. So, until next Wed., my laptop is without power. It is ALMOST funny. But I did add new memory to my desktop, so all is well there too.

So, Garrett has really been into parties lately. I told him his poopies (yeah, see, are you regretting reading it now?) wanted to go visit their other friends down the toilet at the Poopy Party, but they were sad, because they were trapped in the diaper and thrown in the trash and would never make it to the Poopy Party.

That was all it took. Ha ha ha.
