The Library, The Waiting Room, Seeing a Man About a Horse…
What do these things have in common? All are nicknames for the bathroom, and I have spent more than my fair share of time in them this week… It’s potty training time!
It’s been a long time coming, but Sabrina has committed to potty training and it seems to be for good. She has had fleeting interest in the past so I’ve had a lot of moments where I questioned: “Is this really it? Should I buy anymore diapers or should I make her go cold turkey?” But the day finally came when she wanted to have underwear and refused to wear a diaper or a pull up. And to my amazement she had done very well.
However, I have been sitting on a step stool next to the potty a lot this week reading books and having toddler chit chat. Especially because Hannah wanted to have the same kind of attention paid for her potty adventures too. I am thrilled at the idea of no more diapers! This is one milestone I am thrilled to see passed for the last time.
This is just a fun picture I took of the girls trying on the cute hand-me-downs from their cousins. We love hand-me-downs almost as much as we love cousins!
Potty training is such an exciting time, congratulations!!! I am still not quite to the diaperless stage, but I know it will come someday. And such a cute pic of Hannah and Sabrina, it reminds me how much I miss you guys. I enjoyed you Utah visit more than you know, and my kids are still talking about all of their fun cousins from California. And Sabrina looks absolutely adorable in the boots, seriously beyond cute! (And amen to the hand me down love.)
GREAT JOB SABRINA!!! I am not a potty training fan. I am so glad those days are behind us. I LOVE the picture. SUCH BEAUTIFUL GIRLS!!!
I’m jealous. 🙂 Really, really, jealous. I wish. Wellington loves to sit on the potty and will sit on the potty forever. He asks to go potty at the park, the store and when its bed time. There are so many false alarms that I ususally don’t take him. I think maybe after I’m not pregnant it might be slightly easier….just mostly cause I wont have to sit on the floor of the bathroom or bend down or over, or sit on the side of the tub.
He loves to wear pull ups cause they have cars on them, but doesn’t get the concept of not going in them. Although I do think they are helping him realize when he does go.
We’ll give it some time I guess.
