Bath Time Fun

This week has been nuts with Cooper getting his 2 teeth, Zoe starting Round 2 of potty training and me on my diet and exercising. I have been feeling a little spread out too thin lately and last night made it all worth it. I love bath time. It is the funnest part of my day to watch my kids get all squeaky clean after a long day of craziness. We have this chair that my in-laws got for Zoe when she was first sitting up. It keeps them safe from slipping in the tub and we just loved it with her. Now it has gone full circle and Cooper uses it. With the added fun of another little set of splashing hands, Zoe and Cooper have a blast in the tub. Yesterday was a tiring day for me and it all melted away to watch the two of them splash and play and giggle together.

Now as we are on Round 2 of Potty Training with Zoe we are trying things a little differently. Before we tried the bribe of M & M's after she went and didn't see much success with it because we don't give our kids candy very often. Even for Halloween last year most of Zoe's candy got thrown away because we just don't have candy here. So last night Jeremy decided to bribe Zoe with Ice Cream, JACK POT!!!! She instantly went on the potty and got a little bowl of ice cream. Now I know what you all thinking, "Isn't ice cream just as bad as candy?" The answer is Yes, however she won't get it every day and the amount of ice cream that we gave her was just one small scoop. So, wish us luck. We are taking it one day at a time!

  1. They just keep getting cutier! Zoe hair is getting so long. Good luck with the potty training. We used Potty Wise--baby wise books. Worked great!
