Dane'o Bulletin
Well it appears the peeing of the pants episodes have faded away (except now that I said that, they will probalby start again!) but we are still dealing with complete defiance of all authority :(
I know he's at a very tough age and he really is trying (ok, well not maybe trying that hard) and I need to understand BUT my patience can only be stretched so far.
Good thing that boy has a killer smile and can be funny as hell!

Puddle o' pee
Yep - that is what I stepped in yesterday AFTER giving my sweet, lovely child Dane a big ole piece of cake.
I took the cake back.
He went to bed.
He didn't even tell me he peed - just did it and walked thru it to get to the piece of cake.
I have been struggling with how to keep him from doing it - times outs are not working - going to bed isn't working - wearing a diaper isn't working (yes I tried this).
So yesterday I decided to not allow him to play the DS or with the Ben10 watch - his two favorite things. I stressed all day long that peeing our pants makes us lose things, blah blah blah.
I am not sure if it was 100% effective BUT he hasn't had any accidents today! (well, not really accidents - they are more "on purposeses"
:)

Naps no More
So today Dane, my dear, sweet, lovable, bratty ass kid ;) decided that nap was not his friend. I laid him down for nap at 12:45 and at 3:00 (yes, 3 hours and 15 minutes later!) he was still playing in there.
I am honestly at a point with him that I am just about to explode. He pushes every single button I own and finds even more that I didn't know about.
His room is trashed. He won't pick it up. He will stay in there until he is 18 or it is clean, period.
How long will this stage last!??!

Oh Dane
(I don't know how many times I will need to use that title on this thread)
Dane is still going through a VERY 'trying' time and is trying every little thing to assert his independence. While I want my boys to be independent, I just wish the process wasn't so damn painful for me! It's all about me ya know :)
I actually rocked Dane to sleep tonight. It was really nice to do that, I can't tell you the last time he let me rock him to sleep. He is getting too big too fast.
