Potty Strike and Creepy Elves


So much for potty training. Finn had been using the potty about 5 times a day for the last 2 months. He got sick recently and we didn't bother putting him on the potty during that time. Now the potty window has closed. I think he finally realized it takes more time to go potty than it does to just get his diaper changed. Here's hoping he'll be trained by the time he turns 10.

Some new things:
Finn is now deathly afraid of the doctor. He screamed through his entire 18 month visit. A few weeks later my mom took him to the dry cleaners and he freaked out. Seeing a counter with a woman standing behind it gave him flashbacks of the Dr. office, I guess.

He's continuing to speak in more sentences. Last night for the first time he said "Mommy, read the book. That one" and now everything we give him to eat is "Look! Very very hot." Yet he still continues to call milk "puck", even though he can say milk.

He can also sing his ABC's..but not all at once. He'll start and you have to finish, or you start, and he'll finish.

He's also getting a little creepy. He walked in on his babysitter in the bathroom and said "I watch". He proceeded to stare at her. When she asked if he was being a creep he answered "uh,huh."


Finn hates Santa. We took him on a santa train. 5 minutes in he was "all done". His picture pretty much sums up his thoughts on Santa.
