Ah the potty training days! Do everything you can, pull out all your tricks and they’d still rather poop in their pants! I have no suggestions. Maybe husband is right, put big boy underwear on him. Let him pick them out, there’s all kinds of superhero underwear. If he poops in them, take them away because it’s not nice to poop on Superman!

Super eacy to do. Freeze the tomatoes, dump frozen tomatoes in sink, cover with water. Skins will slide off. Take frozen tomatoes and use your large heavy kitchen knife to chop them while they are partially frozen. They chop into a partilly frozen tomato slush and you just cook it down. Since they are tomatoes, you don't need to ppressure can - just water bath.
Summer is coming. He can go naked with the potty seat in the back yard. I potty trained all 3 of my boys that way. So much easier than cleaning poop out of panties

Eventually he will go when he's supposed to. I'm halfway tempted to make him help clean kid 2 next time he poops, so he can see how yucky it is. Dunno how well that might work though.
I'm kinda annoyed we took so long to start potty training him. We kept getting told he would regress if we had started training him before kid 2 was born (they are just under 2 years apart) but I wish we had started before kid 2 was born, even if kid 1 did regress. He's still not trained fully and kid 3 is gonna be here before he gets it together.

Started some seeds in transplant trays this morning, only had time for one tray before we had to leave for work. Got several types of peppers, including lots of bell peppers for hubby. Some of the seed was from 2023, and one packet was from 2017. Very frustrated that the packet of golden bell peppers i bought Saturday, which was supposed to have 20 seeds, only had 2!! They'd better sprout for being $1.50 each.
Going to get the tomato seeds and more planted in the rest of the trays after work.

Call the company....or go online.... they will often send a packet to someone that takes the time to call them. Machine packaged, so things happen... I called once about receiving only 1 sunflower seed in a packet... some expensive super sized one... they sent me several packets of different colors...

Boys often take longer to potty train than girls. It has to do with fine motor coordination. Girls master fine motor coordination at a younger age, boys master large muscle control. I potty trained my 3 boys just before they reached 3 years old. Went really fast at that age. Daughter was potty trained at 2. My grandmother kept saying that DS1 would be in diapers in college. I just laughed and said he could change them himself then.
Summers coming - let him go naked and put the potty seat outside for him to use when he wants. Since he knows when he poops, maybe he is doing it for extra attention. Does he poop in his pants at preschool? @Baymules's idea of letting him choose some cute big boy panties for himself is a good one.
Mms have to be sneaky - there is a reason children grow up thinking we have eyes in the back of our heads and know everything. LOL
