What have you got on under there?

Under where?

In case you were wondering what I decided. I didn't give up. I thought about it. I even kind of tried. I left him in a diaper on a Friday afternoon when he woke up from his nap. But he kept telling me he needed to pee and wanting to go in the toilet, so I figured he must really be ready. We aren't always accident free, although there are days when he doesn't have an accident. But for the most part, he's really getting the idea. Most of the time he will tell me when he needs to go. Otherwise, I just watch what he's been drinking and if it's more than normal, I'll take him more often. Today at church he told me he needed to go. So I took him out of sacrament meeting and he went...a lot. As soon as we got back into the chapel, he said he needed to go again. I didn't really believe him, but with a potty training child, I tend to error on the side of too many bathroom trips than not enough. Sure enough, he went...a few dribbles. I definitely didn't believe him when he said it again when we got back in the chapel. Fool me once kid...just not twice!

(On a side note, isn't he cute in his little underwear?!)

Thanks for the comments on my last post...who knew I just needed to do a little pleading to get people to notice me?! I'll try to post more regularly if you'll try to comment more. And you don't even have to say anything about the post...just say hi so I'll know someone's reading.

Giving Up

So, I want to know...how do you know when it's time to give up? There are a few things I've thought about giving up. This blog is one of them. I think I'll keep it around for the rare times I want to use it. I may even make it public again so more people will see it and respond. I do better when people comment.

Another thing I'm considering giving up on is potty training Levi. I started about two weeks ago. He has some really good days (he had no accidents on Monday or Tuesday) but then he has days where he has several accidents in one day and I just think maybe I should give up for a month or so. I know, he's young and maybe that's the thing. But, I think he could do it if he would try a little bit harder. But then it's a lot of pressure on myself because I don't like accidents and I don't want to have to be with him every minute of every day.

What do you think? I hate being a quitter...that's probably my biggest reason for not giving up so many things that I don't do well at. I hate having that in the back of my head...that I quit...or gave up.

What are hard things for you? How do you know when to give up?
