Can someone tell me

Can someone tell me where I can send Laney to boarding school for potty training?  I think she is ready but I don't want to do it.  I am waiting for Passover break but would love to have it magically happen.

Can someone tell me where I can find clothes for my almost 18 month old daughter that won't fall off her bottom but weren't made for newborns?

Can someone tell me where I can take cookie or cake decorating classes?  It is the latest thing I want to learn- not as if I don't have enough on my plate.  We are always supposed to keep learning so I think it is a good skill to learn.

K the thing I did for jack because he had the pants problem is I bought him a belt at old navy. You can also make them out of fabric and they can be really cute. So that is that solution. Also if you get the book "Toilet Training in less than a day." it won't be that bad. Jack was potty trained by noon on one day. My friend and her whole family swear by it too. As for cake decorating...not my thing. I tried once and it was a disaster.

if you ever do find a boarding school for potty training, i fully plan on sending cohen in tote with laney.

i have ashley's "potty train your child in just one day" book. i have yet to get past the introduction, but if you want to borrow it after me (or before me, since i'm a slow reader) feel free. i'm sure ashley wouldn't mind. (since ainsley is potty trained already!)

potty training boarding school would be genius! You and Erich are entrepreneurs (looks like Jacque and I- if I lived closer) would fork out the cash. !
hilarious about finding clothes for your little pip-squeak!
AND I believe Michaels has cake dec classes, but you guys should just get some girls together and do the self taught thing Or have my mom teach it. She would never claim she could, but I bet she could.

Krissy Waldie did some cake decorating/making thing and I think she took a class. Either way, I know she has made some serious cakes for weddings and special occasions. Maybe Jackie knows more about that even. Good luck!! (Thanks again for the help with the famous "Betsy's rolls" recipe! Can't wait till they're done!)

Sweet Basil has great cooking classes. If you find out about a potty training camp... fill me in! I have had rex in undies cold turkey for like a month now... he has the peeing down, but not the other...so needless to say there has been way too much clean up! Good luck!

I will send Meggie with Laney to the training school. She has no interest. I just stayed home with Kate for about 4 days and just put her in a dress with no panties and just took her about every 20 minutes it gets old, but it seemed to work.
I always had to do tuck stitches in the back of my girls clothes.

JoAnn's Fabric store has cake decorating classes as well. I'm not sure you have any JoAnn's in AZ, but if you do, you could check it out.

Also, in the Salt Lake area they have continuing education classes through the high schools and they teach cake decorating. There might be something like that in Phoenix. I'd Google it.
