Or the flu. It was awful. I am very glad you didn't catch it (I hope that's still accurate) and I hope the Bub got well very quickly!Stephhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05753205572837649406noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3436677792458357476.post-52728051449543180052008-02-04T22:53:00.000-06:002008-02-04T22:53:00.000-06:00eli, too, was supposed to be fully potty-trained b...eli, too, was supposed to be fully potty-trained before he started preschool. true to my long-time procrastinating nature, i waited until about 10 days before opening day, panicked, firmly said goodbye to the diapers, and then repeatedly told him, "make sure you hold it! no accidents!!" on the first day of school. we made it through (it was actually just the motivation i needed to finally get the job done!), and i wish the same for you in the fall!<BR/>oh, and i did get pink eye the first time eli had it. no fun. no fun at all. so kudos to you for being an extensive hand-washer!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3436677792458357476.post-21130781238408963212008-02-04T21:20:00.000-06:002008-02-04T21:20:00.000-06:00I think it's a good sign that the Bub did not like...I think it's a good sign that the Bub did not like his room messy. I am here to tell you that it starts at a very early age and somehow over the years, it doesn't seem to change. As far as preschool, things seem to turn out as they should, so if he gets in, I bet he'll be potty trained.

That's a little ridiculous. We too have been fighting the conjunctivitis fight around here this week -- O's first case. I thought I had it good escaping the doctor's visit and just getting the drops called in (they were out of appts and I guess trusted my description of the symptoms), but we did not get the handy closed/open instructions. Therefore, I've been pinning O to the couch in wrestler's holds and prying his eyes open. Much fun three times a day. I too, have escaped contamination (as has N.!). To perhaps ease your preschool stress:after all my own obsessing, we got a letter this week saying O. had gotten into the morning session of one of the ones we applied to -- my second choice, but the one I'd been afraid would fill up more quickly. We've still flushed 75 dollars down the toilet somewhere, as we registered at two. Great.<BR/>Oh, also -- one of J's favorite sayings is "Messy, Messy" and it was just during the Christmas tv viewing season that we connected it to the magician in Frosty the Snowman.E...https://www.blogger.com/profile/04405932437380095945noreply@blogger.com
