It has officially commenced!
Since he doesn't seem to mind being wet, we've gone straight to underwear. Through three pair so far today...but if it helps him become aware of when it happens, so be it. And as of the moment he's vetoing the underwear altogether, but is now even more aware of when the accidents happen. Still hasn't used the potty, but he needs to recognize his body's signals first. Sigh. Bring out the washcloths.

Diapers: To be shed soon...
Ronan has actually been telling me when he's dirty. Yay! And not fighting during diaper changes. Yay! I want to make sure I can have him at home training for a couple of days though, so we won't move into underwear just yet. I can't wait to say goodbye to worrying about paying for diapers.

Well, it's been a while.
Ronan is smarter every day, anymore. He knows a ton of colors, can count to ten, knows several shapes. He can copy how I show him to do something, and just has a great memory all around. He amazes me, and even more when I read things like most kids don't know colors til 3 or 4. He's also 3 feet tall, which makes him officially more than half my size, lol.
Other things aren't necessarily so great. Chris and I have been together for almost 5 months, so that's good. But I only get to see him on weekends. I'm going through job searches again. Had to leave the sewing job - long story but it's my bipolar's fault again - loved working as a personal care aide but hurt my back doing it. Now I can't walk without hurting and can't work there anymore. Soooo on to finding something else, ugh. The county 911 dispatch is hiring me part-time, but that means I will only work when they need me to fill-in and the other part-timers can't. So I'm keeping my fingers crossed for this management position I'm interviewing for in a few days. It will be a winner, I'm sure, just not a shoe-in yet. So again, wondering where I'm going to come up with rent, bills, diapers...So sick of this. Just want to live and not think about money. When I don't have it is the only time I care.

My Review of Childproof Power Strip Safety Cover
Originally submitted at One Step Ahead
Safeguard your power strip. You've childproofed your electrical outlets don't overlook that computer power strip! Our safety cover snaps over the entire power strip, latching firmly in place. You can remove it easily, but your child can't. Includes four safety plugs to cover unused ou...
Excellent Product!
By Heather and Ronan from Pauls Valley, OK on 4/4/2011
Pros: Easy Use, Strong Construction, Useful Application
Best Uses: Accident Prevention, Toddlers
Describe Yourself: First Time Parent
This is one of the best child-proofing products for our home. Older homes don't have many outlets, so we are forced to use a lot of power strips. Not only does the strip cover keep my 2-year-old from dangerous exploration, it automatically makes the mess look way better. If you have to have an exposed strip, you need one of these.
