TaterTot | The Megalomaniac Mommy

TaterTot

I don’t even know how it happened.
Some how, 4 years went by in the blink of an eye.
It is hard to believe that 4 years ago I was laying in a hospital bed waiting to me my son.
And now, now he is turning 4.
In four years he has gone from a quiet, itty bitty baby boy and turned into a loud, rambunctious, ball of fire and noise, a big brother and a great kid who is a TON of fun!
Happy 4th Birthday to my little Tatertot (even though you aren’t so little any more!)

Love you little man!

It has been 5 days since Tatertot has used a Pull-up!
We couldn’t be happier!!!
This past Saturday I realized we were running low and that’s when I decided we were slapping the plastic liner on his mattress and having him take a nap in his underwear.
Nap time was a success.
When he woke up 1.5 hours later he went to the bathroom right away.
Saturday night we decided he would go to bed for the night in his underwear as well.
He was asleep shortly after 8pm and woke up at 2:30am because he had an accident.
Yes he had an accident, but this was progress….he WOKE UP!!
On Sunday, he successfully napped in underwear once again AND made it from 9pm Sunday until 6:30am on Monday in his underwear with zero accidents!
This has continued since.
Last night, he was so tired he had an itty bitty accident in bed but woke up and ran to the bathroom to take care of everything and then went right back to sleep and made it through the rest of the night.
I am SOOOOOOO happy!!
We are finally done with Pull-ups and we don’t have to buy diapers or wipes for Bean for quite some time since we stock piled while I was pregnant!
Here’s to some extra money to put in savings for a down payment on a house!!!!

Lately we have been experiencing some anger issues with Tatertot.  I am not talking about your normal every day almost four year old tantrum.  I am talking about serious anger issues like punching, kicking, slamming himself against thinks, screaming, throwing….you name it.

I am at a loss as to what to do with him to discipline him anymore.  Nothing seems to work.  I have already taken away his toys, time-outs don’t work and spanking him doesn’t get us anywhere.

I am at my wits end and so it Hardworking Hubby.

This is not something that I have dealt with before.

Right now I am working on setting up an award chart to see if that will help at all but I am definitely open to any ideas you may have!

Please share!!!

It’s either we nip this in the butt or I am going to start drinking…..A LOT!
