The laughs never stop

Cameron....

Oh, this child just keeps me in stitches. The things he comes up with are just sooooo funny.

First, the other day, he got into the winter hats, which I have stored in cubbies in the boys' closet. He picked the funniest looking one and has been wearing it around the house for 3 days now. Yesterday he walked over by some of the Christmas decorations (where we took pics a couple of days ago) and said to me, "take picture, Mommy?" So, I did.




He is working really hard on potty training right now, and is doing quite well with it. I am finding that the more I keep him in "big boy pants", the better he does....and he really thinks that he is hot stuff when he gets to wear them.

(Something funny to mention here--when we started him out wearing undies for practice, I just reached into Colin's drawer for a pair. I pulled them up....and they were way too tight. In fact, he actually said to me, "too ti, Mommy, too ti!! I had to go to my stash of 'next-sized' undies, which were put away for Colin, for him! I just thought that was so funny....Colin has been wearing 2T-3T underwear for 2 years and Cameron is starting off in a 4T! Oh, each child is so very different.....)

Anyway, the other night I asked him if he wanted to wear big-boy pants. Of course, he said yes, and immediately said, "Cars?" We have a few pairs of Cars undies, and those are his favorites. So, I put him in Mater, and he promptly walked into the living room, over to the Christmas tree, and again requested that I take pictures of him. So.....I did.




Now, this one is the kicker......when I asked him to show me who was on his pants so I could take a picture, he did this:

What a cute little tushy! You are brave to go straight to "big boy" pants. I should do that with Isaiah but I HATE the mess. So we've been trying for weeks now with no great success.

Oh Steph, it is soooo hard....I hate, hate, hate potty training. I think, to date, it is the hardest thing I have done as a parent! LOL. I think there is just something about the switch to the undies....it feels different on them, and they (at least mine) seem to do so much better. They feel it instantly if they start to go....whereas a diaper is so absorbent, it just doesn't seem to work with the training stuff as well. That's been my experience anyway, but one key: each child is so different! Good luck....

Very cute! And the precious innocence! This is one thing that people say girls are easier when it comes to potty training. I'm banking on that. Nevermind the PMS in the highschool years! :)

Oh and congratulations on the minivan!
