Summer Adventures and Potty Training Take Three or Twelve or Something Like That...

Last Friday the boys and I met up with the Smith family at the Nashville Zoo. All of the boys had such a fun time together and the weather was perfect! One more adventure checked off our Summer bucket list.
 









The same evening, after the zoo, we took the boys and Ethan's buddy, Carter to the drive-in to see Despicable Me 2. It was the boy's first time to the drive-in and they thought laying on quilts and pillows in the back of their dad's truck while watching a movie was the coolest! Check another adventure of the Summer bucket list ✅.

On Sunday evening, the boys had a dance party in their pj's...



And, we are once again giving potty training a shot. I thought we were doing great. Landen wore underwear all day yesterday and only had two accidents. I was taking him to the potty every 15-20 minutes and he must've been tired of going because he brought me a diaper and asked me to put it on him. I reminded him that he was using the potty and asked why he wanted the diaper on and he said "So I can pee in it!"  and then he sat down and said "See....like this" as he proceeded to show me where the diaper should go. I couldn't help but laugh. We pressed on though and he wore underwear with no more accidents until 8:30pm, when we put a diaper on for bed. The problem is that in days like today when we're gone from 10am-4pm and then again from 6pm-9pm, I can't take him to the toilet every 15-20 minutes and so he has to wear a diaper. I feel like that's a step backwards and confusing to him. Hmmm...
