if momma ain't happy...


Today I'm taking out my PMS aggression on Baby C and her complete insolence in regards to diapers/potty.

I am once again down to one snappi clip! Those snappi's are 4 dollars each and I'm tired of losing them!
I'm tired of paying for diapers!
I'm tired of her bed smelling like pee!
I'm tired of defending myself as a mother because people think I'm ignorant!

I really just want to throw her in the backyard and tell her she has to live like a labrador until she can act like a human girl.

Apparently that's illegal.

Right now she is unable to watch TV, color, cut paper, or read stories until she pees on the potty.

She told me "I'm going to wear diapers forever," this morning.

"Don't you care that ALL your friends wear underwear and you wear diapers like a baby?"

"No, I'm going to wear diapers forever like a baby."


I think I'm going to start lying to people and saying she has a medical condition.

"Her bladder didn't form right, she may have to wear diapers for the rest of her life
."

Yep, that's my new plan. Lying.

LOL! She is too funny. I'm glad we can laugh out our crazy girls. If you don't laugh, well, tears.

Hey Charlie you know who is the best coach for kid training... Gi Gi granny...She was a hoot and always used reverse psycology. How bout you take one of her diapers and say that your going to wear it or make something that fits and resembles the diaper. Have Kevin or someone stop by the house and just gasp or whatever the appropriate script would be.. Act it out and let her see that it's time if you think to give it up.Jeremys bladder and GiGi's and George's never held through the night so just protect the bed I changed sheets and blankets til Jer was 8 yrs old your mom and george were ten! I know you are creative and will acomplish what you want..

Oh and maybe you can tell her she can't have something because your money has to go to diapers and since she wants to wear them then forget the ice cream etc. treats she can choose where she wants the $ to go...

yea....tell her that only the baby wears them baby R and if she wants to wear them forever then she needs to know that she will get diapers for presents instead of cookies and treats when you come home from the store it's your choice...giggle! We always end up punishing ourselves and they know it when we take away a few moments that give us PMS relief! T.V. and coloring..

Hey Charlie what about this too: talk up going places that your going to and that after a certain age they do not allow children in diapers only babies. That they would not let her in, Just shower her in her request to wear them but let her see what she has to give up to wear and have them. It's kinda mean but I think it might work..Set her up for an entire day or when Kevin is home and can help. You can set up a discussion where she can hear you talking to someone that you will let her wear them but you understand that she can't go here or there because if it. But Baby R can..
