Over The Weekend #43

This weekend hubby was working and it was all about potty training at home!

We technically started last week but cause Oisìn is in daycare three days a week

he needs to be fully potty trained or in nappies. It set him back a bit so I have decided to

go full steam ahead and keep in out of daycare this week until he is comfortable to say he needs the potty at daycare!

He has been doing brilliantly and fingers crossed he has got the hang of it this weekend!

He goes straight to the potty himself sometimes just asks for help getting his underpants down quick enough!

I am a bit nervous about bringing him out while potty training

but on Saturday we went to the library and he went to the toilet in the big boy toilet!

This is our local library and Oisìn loves it!!

He had a good chat with the librarian who then invited us to a Teddy Bear Picnic on Wednesday!

He then spent 15 minutes talking to a random car on the walk to the park
because he thought it was Herbie!!
So sweet and funny!

Today seemed to have an Autumn feel to it! The nights are drawing in, this morning it took
a bit later to get bright and we where up from 6.30am! It was also a bit chilly here in Dublin
Oisìn and I went for a walk.....I brought the potty with me!

The park already has signs of Autumn
I find this a bit bitter sweet.....I love Autumn its my favourite season
but I am not ready to let go of Summer yet after all it's only August!
In another news thankfully Oisìn had no potty training accidents all weekend
I am not patting myself on the back just yet but hopefully this time next week
we should be a nappy free zone!

My Mam came up for dinner today and I cooked a roast beef Sunday Lunch
I am now in bed curled up with a cup of hot chocolate and a book!!

Over The Weekend #28

This weekend Paul was working

so it was just me and Oisín for most of it

We has some nice Mother and Son time

On Saturday morning we were up and out early

we done a bit of shopping 

and then headed to one of our favourite places the library

Oisín loves it here the children and young adult section is huge

he loves looking at all the books

It does be a chore to try to get him to leave

So after he picked out three books I had to promise a trip to

the park to get him to leave!

After a very quick trip to the park we went

to my parents for lunch

Oisín showed Nana his books while Granddad made lunch!

Later after movie time at home

we had yummy hot dogs for tea!

After Oisín was bathed and in bed

Paul and I enjoyed a glass of bubbles while watching Outlander

Sunday was a slow day we just stayed cosy, watched movies and I done some housework

Paul and Oisín went to a friends christening when Paul got home from work

I got ready and went out with my parents for a well deserved night out!

Paul was off work yesterday for the Bank Holiday

so we spent a hour or so in the park with Oisín

we then came home and watched Minions while a lovely roast cooked in the oven

We had a lovely roast for dinner it was just what the doctor ordered!

We finished the weekend off with a glass of something nice

While watching Game of Thrones

What an episode that one was!

Over The Weekend #16

By Saturday morning I was feeling a little better

after Oisín had a sleep over on Friday night

at his Grandparents so I could rest and sleep in

Saturday morning. It was a lovely treat and

just what I needed to get back on my feet!

 

After collecting Oisín from his grandparents

we went to my favourite place the library!

I got lots of lovely books to keep me going

in February!

We then went for a quick walk in the park

and to get a few bits from the shop

Oisín was really tired at this stage so we

didn't hang around for long

We had a lovely steak dinner and Oisín

enjoyed dipping his chips in the pepper sauce!

 

After Oisín was bathed (he had an early night as he wasn't himself)

I had a hot shower got into my pjs and chilled out

We watched the movie Legend with Tom Hardy so much eye candy!

 

Poor little mister Oisín picked up a little tummy bug

and Sunday was spent looking after our little boy

He was off his food and slept for most of the day

we keep giving him plenty of fluids and he

seems so much better today

 

After Oisín was tucked up in bed

I could relax with a glass of red and

Call The Midwife

Then it was off to bed for an early night

(Or maybe I read one of my library books till 1am!!)
