    Tracyg, big hugs hun, children are just mortifying sometimes, aren't they? My DS often makes me feel as if I'm a totally carp parent. The other week he threw a very large rock at DH when we were in town (he was in a time-out beside the road), then tried to hit him with a big stick, then tired to push the baby's pram over, then pulled my hair, then just squeamed and squeamed and squeamed. :mad: It's enough to make you cry. Have faith that it'll all pay off in the end, be consistent and grab the fun bits where you can. Then come here and get it all off your chest. ;)

    Newmrslockwood, similar situation with our DS, he'll be five next month and still poos his pants twice a week minimum. I just throw them away now, not very MSE, but I feel I've dealt with enough !!!!!!! :rotfl:

    GandB, glad LO is o the mend, good luck with bathtime.

    Luthercat, welcome!

    Dailies done, but no levels as yet. Will update if I get anywhere. x

    Lil_me, I have no idea what Chronicles of Riddick is about, despite watching it [STRIKE]enough to wear down the DVD[/STRIKE] a few times. I can't seem to concentrate on the [STRIKE]hot biceps[/STRIKE] story line.

    Dishes done, kitchen level 2'd. Told you is wasn't bad! Cooker on for dinner, something with sausages. Oh nasty thought there... ahem... Dinner, yes. Sausages, yes.

    I shall not Google Images.... :A

    These are a bit more my style - sadly not a 4.

    Managed most of the list today - was going to skip the floor but when I emptied the washing machine a shredded tissue floated everywhere :mad: So, I cleaned the floor! :rotfl:

    On the potty training side, We've done really well. A few very small dribble accidents, but thats not bad at all. He even sat on and did a poo... I'm really proud of him, more so because i'm having problems with DS2 wetting himself and he's very nearly 5. I've tried everything to get him out of it and i don't know what to do next..

    SNAP! I had this last year with my 5 yo - the 3yo was great and got it straight away. Dd was coming home from school with a bag of wet clothes at least twice a week. It was really frustrating and in the end we started a sticker chart. I knew she was after a Bratz scooter and they were half price in Argos at the time. She had to work for it though - 4 small star stickers (4 dry days) in a row equalled a large star sticker and 6 large stickers equalled the scooter. With a couple of accidents in the first week it took her about a month but after that first week I had no more problems and she quickly got all the stickers and the scooter. Does that make sense? I hope it helps in some way.
