Baby Steps

Well, Parker took a bath tonight, without jumping out of the bathtub, or running away and hiding for the first time in weeks....maybe months! He even cried as I undressed him saying, " I'm going to be bad, I just can't be good and take a bath, I just can't mama." Poor guy. There were many tears shed, but he only got out once and I convinced him that it was a good idea to just suck it up tonight.
You see, he has developed a true hate for bath time, complete with full-out tantrum almost every night:( Guess what big boy...you're taking a bath- even if you ask to sit in the corner instead of taking a bath, say you aren't dirty and don't need a bath or, my personal favorite, jump out of the tub, slip out of my hands and run and hide, I will find you, put you back in the tub, and make you squeaky clean:) (or daddy will if he comes home from work before 9pm)
Carson had a good potty day at school and even came home in the same clothes that we left in:) Today he saved the pooping in his pants for his mama:( Sat on the potty for at least 20 minutes, complete with red ring on his butt, then said he couldn't go. Went to the play room, running around, me reminding him to tell me if he had to go....10 minutes later.....well, you know. Apparently, he does not care about that makes Thomas the Train feel:(
We'll keep trying....that's all we can do. Baby steps is still progress, right?

Just noticing that all of our news is in the bathroom right now.....life of 2 almost 3 year olds I guess.
