Scraper's Paradise

I have finally created a space for scrap booking. It has only taken two years and it's not complete but it is a start. I started Nathan's album about two weeks ago and have been working hard since. I have completed everything up to the day he came home. I love scrap booking but my only problem is that I am slow. I have to make sure everything is balanced, color coordinated properly, and cropped just right. I mean the other night I worked on a layout for over two hours and still didn't complete it until the next day. It is frustrating but I just can't help myself. I am happy though that I am just finally getting it done. That is Nathan's album anyway. I still haven't finished my own or Ryan's or even our wedding album! Oh well that's another day, or in the words of Scarlett O'Hara....I'll just have to think about that tomorrow.

We have urination in the toilet!

Finally we have a success with potty training. Nathan went tee tee yesterday not only once but twice! Can I just tell you how happy that makes me. I tried not to resort to food bribes, but I gave in and told him that if he went he could have some cookies. We called Ryan and let him know, then we called Nonna. Everyone was very happy. He has sat on the potty in the past but never would go. He only sit there and "play" with his penis. Do all boys go through that? He has actually begun to tell us that he has a "big penis". It is quite funny because he grunts when he says it. Once again, are all little boys like this, or do I need to be concerned? He does love to wear his big boy underwear and likes the fact that he keeps them dry (which is easy to do when he has a pull-up under them). Oh well, I am just so happy that he has gone in the potty. I hope he only continues going in the potty. I'll keep you posted.
