Whew! Why is it that the weekends when you do nothing seem like you did everything?
Saturday, Daddy went to work and Jacob and I went to see G&G S for the evening. They had Nick and Nevaeh, Jacob's full biological brother and sister. We had a really good time until Nick locked Jacob and Nevaeh in the bathroom. ON PURPOSE! He locked one door, ran around, shut and locked the other door. Jacob and Nevaeh were fine, they were playing with a bottle of baby powder (the good kind, not TALC). Grandpa got a coat hanger and sprung the lock. I wasn't very happy with that Nick. The rest of the visit was pretty good.
Sunday = ugh! Sunday started off fighting with Jacob about going #2 in the potty. I have read about sooo many people having this trouble but I don't remember how they resolved it. If you have a success story, please, please, share? Daddy told Jacob that he couldn't go outside until he pooped in the potty. Yeah, didn't work. He waited for this morning when he could poo in last night's pull-up. Jacob hung out in the recliner most of the day watching his programs arguing with me about pooping on the potty and going outside.
I managed to complete 3. Yes, 3 books over the weekend. I'm sick. I need help. No one should be able to read like that! 2 of them, I read, in entirety, on Sunday. I have so many things to do. I have my Christmas shopping done, like I said but, I neglected to tell you that I have to MAKE all the stuff before they're really gifts. I'm also working on a quilt - I'm doing the top and the Amish by my sister Cindy, are going to finish it off for me. I should be making that stuff instead of having my nose STUCK in a bunch of books! :)
Jacob and I had some good quality time together in the evening though while Daddy was at work. We ordered out for dinner, we watched a movie, we took a bath (ha! my fat butt in the tub didn't last long but, Jacob was amazed at the change in the water level every time I moved), we watched his programs together and 'fnuggled' on the floor with our 'bwankies'. This morning, he was in our bed again and caught me picking my nose (sometimes, you just have to pick - and it was only a pick!) and said "Mommy, you eating birdseed?"

Potty training sucks... Pooping is very hard for them to master. Alot of kids are afraid to poop in the potty. Just give it time and before you know it he'll have it mastered. Just don't force it.
