And then there was one...

... in diapers.  {And the crowd goes wild!}

NO PICTURES!

Wow... it has been a rough week.  I don't remember William being this hard to potty train.  And really... James wasn't hard.  He just had more accidents than I expected.  To be honest it's partly my fault.  I thought to myself, "He's doing great!  I'll just hop on the computer for just a second."  Next thing I know it's been several minutes and in that time there was an accident.  Oops.


Thursday I was getting ready to put Alexander down for a nap when James had an accident.  I started running water for the tub while I cleaned up the puddle on the kitchen floor.  In the meantime, Alexander got a little neglected and decided to have some fun of his own.

It seems that he wanted to have a bath as well.  Great.  The older boys thought this was hilarious and Alex couldn't seem to understand why I was upset.

Friday, Saturday and today were completely accident free!  James has been to run errands, to the State Fair, and to church all without accidents.  He really is doing awesome.


In other James related news: a few weeks ago he lost his blanket.  I'm sure it's somewhere in the house.  No one has been able to find it yet.  He was a little sad but he still had a few strands of it that he would carry around.  I noticed that the only time he sucked his thumb was when he was holding those little strings.  So I decided to "lose" those as well.  That, and the fact that he would wake up in the middle of the night wanting his strings.  It was impossible to find them in the dark and we'd had enough of it!  He still asks for those silly strings every night but he is doing great without them.

It seems that James is turning into a big kid now.
