Poor kids, I was stressed potty training the two oldest. i took a slightly different approach with the two youngest, and it was soooo easy :D Good Luck!
My UPS guy leaves a dog treat for my dog, now she expects it from the mail man and Fed Ex guy too, she is often left depressed when it's not UPS delivering <---True story
Honestly he says thank you to a thank you. Who learned him! I saw all the giveaways but I don't need BTS supplies. I wish everyone luck. Hope your week is going well. Best of luck with the potty training.
What the frick-frack? Blogging makes time pass faster than having a newborn baby! I swear I was here yesterday and it was like a week until giveaway time. sheesh. Well, I better adjust my pull-ups and go enter!
Oh...I love the idea of hubs potty training! You should let him do that!!!! And, it's so true when adults say weird things to kids that confuses them. My Emma-Kay has to ALWAYS know a persons name...no matter who it is, she HAS to know your name...well at dinner the other night, she kept asking the waitress what her name was, and she kept getting ignored...it annoyed the crap out of me!!!!!
LOL at hubs having no idea how the kids were PT'd. We are starting right now, and daycare wants us to use pull-ups. I sent in some training pants and plastic pants to go over them. They only tried once so far. LOL
I can only imagine how much money I would have wasted putting him in pull-ups.
LMAO!! I love that the UPS guy does not know to say you're welcome. Haha! What is wrong with people? Have we completely forgotten manners? Good for you for teaching your kids these.
I've joked that I'm sending my daughter to Camp-Auntie for potty training next summer. My SIL has PT'ed 2 kids now. I wonder if I can get away with it???? :)
I need to potty train my youngest but I am super scared to get rid of all the pull ups. I know it needs to be done but I keep hoping the Potty Fairy will show up and *poof* my boy goes potty!
Wanna know what's worse than the library giving out goldfish as a reading incentive? Having it die the day after your kid brings it home. Uh-huh. Good luck with that! Thanks for stopping by Shell. Your PINT posts totally crack me up. Have a great day.
DUDE! People always say thank you back to my kids when they say thank you! It is so annoying!!! Thank you also for reminding me about the liquid electronics thing. I am really bad about that- especially when I am drinking my wine.
Good luck with PT! I can't believe that your library gave your child a goldfish?!?!That is some library. My daughter got a pencil and a DD coupon for a free donut.
LOL at potty training. Daddy should so have his turn. That is so weird that the library is giving out goldfish as a prize. Our kids do grow up so fast. It makes me sad...
Oh man, I so feel your pain on the potty training!! I'm in the midst of PT hell right now myself!
Can't believe the librarian gave your kids a goldfish!!! That's just plain cruel...doesn't she know you're the one who's gonna get stuck taking care of it!
My kids always notice when someone doesn't use their manners or use their manners correctly. It can be kinda confusing for them!
Are you doing your PYHO meme tomorrow? I finally remembered to get my post together to link up!
You know those things you want to say, but you might seem a little weird if you walked up to the moms you just met on the playground and said them? That's what I spill here.

I know how that laptop thing goes! Not good!
I didn't think you'd be able to stay away! Good luck with the potty training. I do not miss that phase at all!
LMAO @ the UPS man!!!
these are adorable... i love seeing them at other sites. I HAVE to join in. cute stuff ,shell. on my way to the sidebar... LOVE your blog set up, too.
I will never understand why people think pets make good prizes. Good luck with that!
Care to share your potty training secrets? We're plugging along, but Knowledge is Power ;)

I so hated potty training. It's ALL behind me now. But I *kinda* miss those days.
As for Mr. UPS Dude...he needs to learn reciprocal manners!
Boys are the worst to potty train... I agree, let Daddy take this one.
A goldfish! What a rip! That's really going to inspire kids to read. LOL
good luck with the potty training..we're into drivers training at my house.
A goldfish? Make them clean the dirty thing too. [the library that is]
Oh I hate potty training. I have tried with Allison and she hates her little potty, she will sit there and cry.
ugh, potty training...I know that will be happening again soon. I just hope #2 trains faster than her sister
LOVE your post-its. I need to figure out how to do more tricks on here! You have a new follower! I'm at www.walkingtheoff-beatenpath.blogspot.com
i skipped the pull ups all together when I potty trained Bailey hope all goes well with PT i know its not fun!!
Honestly he says thank you to a thank you. Who learned him! I saw all the giveaways but I don't need BTS supplies. I wish everyone luck.
Hope your week is going well. Best of luck with the potty training.
A library that gives out goldfish to kids? Who thought that one through?
The pottytraining bit cracked me up.
Ugh, my 2 yr. old wants nothing to do with potty training right now! I never used Pull-Ups with my first & don't think I'll be using them now.
Going to check out the Back to School giveaways. Happy PINT! :)
What's next? The library giving away puppies?!? That does seem like a really strange prize!
Glad to hear your laptop and blackberry are all better now.
What was the UPS man thinking,lol?
Getting a goldfish at the library as a prize is a bit bizarre. What ever happened to books, bookmarks or little toys?
What the frick-frack? Blogging makes time pass faster than having a newborn baby! I swear I was here yesterday and it was like a week until giveaway time. sheesh. Well, I better adjust my pull-ups and go enter!
Really? A goldfish? Thats kinda cool....but I understand your frustration. LOL @ the UPS man. Awesomeness UPS...awesomeness. :o)
-->I hate pottytraining!

Ah, husbands.
Mine says "I thought we sleep trained him months ago."
Then, when the babe cries for 4 minutes in the middle of the night he says "I can't believe you're letting him cry. You KNOW I can't sleep like this."
I can't wait for potty training.
Yep, clueless hubbys.
I can't stay away from blogging either. I'm stealing spotty internet every now and then to blog.
Haha the pull of PINT was just too strong!
I vote for Daddy taking his turn with potty training also!
LOL at hubs having no idea how the kids were PT'd. We are starting right now, and daycare wants us to use pull-ups. I sent in some training pants and plastic pants to go over them. They only tried once so far. LOL
I can only imagine how much money I would have wasted putting him in pull-ups.
crap! 7? It's only Tuesday, LOL! Man I have some catching up to do.
LMAO!! I love that the UPS guy does not know to say you're welcome. Haha! What is wrong with people? Have we completely forgotten manners? Good for you for teaching your kids these.
My library gave me a goldfish too. My mom was not pleased.
I wouldn't have paired libraries and goldfish. hm.
I think I would've been confused if the UPS man said 'thank you' instead of 'you're welcome' too lol
Lol! Why would the UPS man say thank you back?
I do dread the potty training and I think Monkey is just about ready but I am not! ;-)
This was funny. Thanks for the laugh. Yes, I think your husband should do the pottytraining. It is only fair.
I've joked that I'm sending my daughter to Camp-Auntie for potty training next summer. My SIL has PT'ed 2 kids now. I wonder if I can get away with it???? :)
How DO you potty train a kid? You're gonna have to do a post on that . . . I have no clue how I would even go about it or start.
When somebody doesn't say, "You're welcome" back to my kid, he'll keep saying, "Thank You," thinking they didn't hear him.
I'm not ready to have the "Honey, some people are just assholes" talk yet.
I read one of those posts as no liqueur by the computer...haha!
I say ya you did 2 he gets to do the last one! Potty training sucks!
Thank you!
;)
Goldfish? I would have said, "sorry...we're allergic. Do you have a puppy instead?" That's bad...
I hate when people don't use appropriate manners with kids...it's so important!!!
I can't believe they gave out gold fish!
I need to potty train my youngest but I am super scared to get rid of all the pull ups. I know it needs to be done but I keep hoping the Potty Fairy will show up and *poof* my boy goes potty!
A mama can dream, right?

I HATED HATED potty training!!! Ugh! I am so over that. hahaha.
I love when little kids say "thank you" it's not only sweet but a sign of good parenting.
DUDE! People always say thank you back to my kids when they say thank you! It is so annoying!!! Thank you also for reminding me about the liquid electronics thing. I am really bad about that- especially when I am drinking my wine.
i spilled coffee on my laptop a little while back. i did have to replace my keyboard, but it didn't get into anything internal, thank goodness!
I have an award for you! :)

Good luck with PT! I can't believe that your library gave your child a goldfish?!?!That is some library. My daughter got a pencil and a DD coupon for a free donut.
Oh my PT for the third time, I can only imagine :-)
A goldfish? We got lots of great coupons and a toy Cat In The Hat!
LOL at potty training. Daddy should so have his turn.
That is so weird that the library is giving out goldfish as a prize.
Our kids do grow up so fast. It makes me sad...
A goldfish? Shut the front door!!
Well, there's a reason right there why I will never do a summer reading program:) The last goldfish we had in our house committed suicide!
All I can say to the goldfish is - Really? Are you kidding me?
I refuse to even think about potty training since I know it was a nightmare with me!
Oh man, I so feel your pain on the potty training!! I'm in the midst of PT hell right now myself!
Can't believe the librarian gave your kids a goldfish!!! That's just plain cruel...doesn't she know you're the one who's gonna get stuck taking care of it!

Are you doing your PYHO meme tomorrow? I finally remembered to get my post together to link up!
Sigh, they do grow to fast, don't they? E won't let me call him Lovey in public now.
I like to give people nicknames, but often when I do this to kids, they are very quick to correct me and let me know that is NOT their name.
All I can say to this is at least your kids say thank you...right? Too many kids don't these days!!
I HATE when people give goldfish away as gifts! Makes me crazy.
The UPS thank you thing cracked me up...I know exactly what you mean!!
