This weekend we tried... and failed potty training Finn. Yesterday, John and I geared up for an all day crash course in potty training. We put Finn in big boy underwear and set a timer to go off every 15 minutes to go potty, bribing him with his favorites, cars & gummy bears. He was so cute; everytime I would ask if he had gone he would say "Not yet Mommy, not yet." Finn sat on the pot 42 times and didn't go once. He did however go 5 times on the floor. We tried again this morning and no luck. So I decided to let it go, put him back in diapers, and we will try again on Christmas break. He really was a good sport about it all I just honestly don't think he is ready.
What finally sent me over the edge was I decided to treat John and I to a $20 bottle of one of our favorite red wines, Frances Coppola, I am usually pretty frugal when it comes to wine but decided we really deserved it after our day. I opened it, walked out to bath a child and when I came back in a BIG, HUGE fly had died in the bottle. That was the moment that I started crying.
Oh well, guess we will keep him. :)
