Chase and Potty Training

Why can't Chase do it? Preston does, many kids in his classroom do?
Mommy does it? Mommy's shown Chase how it's done. Daddy does it, but he hasn't shown him like Mommy has. We talk about it where we should poop. Preston tells him where to poop! Chase tells me his tummy hurts. I ask Chase, "Do you need to go poo poo?" Chase says no, but 2-5 minutes later after I say you DO NOT go Poop in underwear or pull up, but in toilet, like Preston, Daddy and Mommy, but NOOOOOOOO he does it any way.

What do I do? How can he learn faster? When will it click? We keep ruining undewear, its ridiculous!! They ususally aren't this far apart on learning anything new from each other(does this makes sense)?

The bad thing is, we are almost always "OUT" when he goes... So I can't just run him to the toilet and he HARDLY EVER goes at School.

Chase, sweetie, please please, figure it out soon.

Oh yea and then we'll work on keeping you in your bed and not waking up briefly twice a night.

Love you much,

New Hair Conditioner?!

Who would have known that my hair would work so well with :
Pantene (Curly) Dry to Moisturized Conditioner would be the best THING EVER.

OMG! I put this conditioner own and combed through my curls like it was nothing!! Unbelievable! I've been trying all kinds of products out to moisturize my natural hair, but most of the time it was sooo tangled! Anyways, it even made my curls not so frizzy and I almost wore it curly this week, but then I decided to go ahead and straighten it. Maybe next week!

Now, I just need to go purchase their Deep Conditioning Treatment! I love you Pantene!! See I didn't have to use your "Relaxed and Natural" line of products! ;)

So Far So Good!

I just came back from getting my crown on from the dentist and she asked me what I did differently today to my face and I was like, "ummmmm, I'm wearing my Mary Kay Creme to Powder foundation" She was like that looks amazing!(okay, maybe she said "really good"). Then she asked me if I'd ever tried the satin hands and I thought to myself 'I could say, yes and not mention I sell it, OR i could say yes and say, that I DO sell it!" I went with the later and guess what? She wanted to order sets for ALL of her employees for Valentine's day! 8 people! who hoo!! Then she is intersted in looking at their anti aging products for her eyes and etc... We have great stuff for that! So when I drop off the product, I'm dropping off a magazine for her too! and maybe leave one in the office! So needless to say, I gained another client plus maybe all the ladies that work in the dental office! Talk about growing my business in 2012! She also went ahead and wrote me the check too! So far, so good!

I ran with the boys in the BOB stroller last night. Oh MY! I am soooo out of shape! I only went 1.5 miles in 20 minutes! How horrible and my legs were killing me. Well they are a tad bit heaver than they used to be. I'm running with a coworker at lunch today at work. We'll see if i do better. I'll be using my myfitness app to track our time and distance! LOve it!

So loving Texas weather today! 79 degrees! Yippee!! Could you ask for a more beautiful day! I should have taken off enjoyed outdoors stuff all day. Maybe taken the boys the the zoo or something. Not much going on here at work anyways..

Have a great weekend everyone!

My wants are still here.

I still want this.
Michael Kors Hamilton Bag

AND this..
IPAD

And This...
Car...

What can I say? Even though I can't get any of it right now, i can still dream right?

So I'll just keep on bringing my old (purse), using my Amazon Kindle App on my Iphone and keep on driving my little 4 door broke down Passat with 2 HUGE car seats in them with NO room until its time. Oh did I tell you it has over 200,000 miles on it? ahahahahah. It also needs major stuff done, but it's still rolling!

Happy Thursday.

I haven't Posted yet this year? On this Blog?

Oops! I think I did on my old blog.

2012 will hopefully be a great year!

Some of the things I'm looking forward to are;
1) my sister's wedding in Virginia! Awesome!
2) Losing weight. I plan to drop 20 lbs!! Get back to single digits. ;)I'm a size 10. I want a size 6 back! Keeping it off! Lifestyle change!
3) Dropping the Debt we owe to creditors
4) My boys sleeping in their beds ALL Night!
5) Growing my Mary Kay business
6) Grow in my current full time career. Maybe some different/better opportunities? We'll see.
7) Trying to be a better person and great mom! Oh yea, and wife.
8) Read more, less tv. That ususally happens in the summer time though.

All is well!

Christmas was Great!

Merry Christmas!!!!!


Santa brought the boys Huffy 12 Inch bikes (Cars & Toy Story) with helmets,
Train set,
Remote control car
Home Depot building set
Mr. Potato Head
Toy Story Nerf gun thing
Clothes etc...

Santa brought me some cash which I'm saving up for an IPAD the first of May! I sacrificing eating out during the week for 12 weeks so I can get one. Pretty lame huh...

I realized my mom doesn't approve of anything I do when it comes to the boys. I can totally tell by her reaction. She doesn't hide it very well, and I'm just like her in that sense. Oh well...

We suck as parents and I already know, so whatever.

My sister got engaged which was aweseome! SO fun!

Other than that , I had a great time with family. Can't wait to do it all over again next year!

Preston is potty trained and Chase is ALMOST THERE! I am suspect they will be done by mid January totally, except for a night..

Still trying to get the boys to sleep in their OWN BEDS AT NIGHT!
I'M DOING IT tonight! Wish me luck! I'm sure I'll be up till midnight and all night long!

I'm excited to what the NEW Year will bring my family and I...

Happy Birthday!!

Today at 5:15 and 5:16pm , Chase and Preston were born! They have forever changed my life and can't wait for many many more birthdays to come!

I love you guys!!! Best Christmas gift ever!!!

Okay, So I'm a Liar, I guess

I decided to blog again... LOL!

So I ain't got no, Ipad or Ipad 2, a sorry laptop computer, no router, a used printer with no color ink and that I have to put heavy paper on to keep the lid closed so it will work, No new car, No kitchen table, no wood floors, no King Size bed, No Kindle or Kindle Fire, No huge savings account, No money basically, etc...

BUT......

What I do have is a health Chase and Preston who are growing, talking and learning more and more each day. That makes me happy and If I can remember that everytime I'm envious on what other folks have, I think I'll be alright. :)

I have to get in my head that all that stuff is sooo materialistic which I can say I DO get caught up in, doesn't really mean anything if you and your family aren't healthy. We could have it worse. We have a house and we can eat and both have jobs. What else is there??? :)

I'm just going to keep dreaming big!

Nobody Cares!!

Nobody Cares, Nobody Reads, Nobody Comments! What's the point?

I guess I'll just stick with Facebook and Twitter! Atleast I hear from those folks!

Merry Christmas and A Happy New Year and I'm signing off of blogging forever!!! Good Bye my years 2008- Dec 2011. It's been real and fun, but I've lost touch with everyone here in blog world..

If you want to keep in touch with me and my family please friend me on Facebook at courtni.jackson@yahoo.com
Or Follow me on Twitter @cute_twinmom2008.
