Finally Potty Training

Photobucket

Phoebe has finally become ready to potty train.  I believe in waiting for them to be ready for this, after going through it with John where waiting for him was the only option.  Of course waiting for it can be frustrating at times.  I'm certainly sick of stinky diapers, and have had two in diapers for much of the last 6 years.

Anyway we've talked a lot about using the potty over the last several months.  She was a lot like John in the beginning and wouldn't go near the toilet.  Then she got to where she'd sit on it but never actually go.  About 2 months ago she peed in the potty but didn't want to do it again.  Then she kept saying "tomorrow I'll use the potty" and yesterday was finally "tomorrow."

She sat on the potty a bunch and actually went twice.  Today she's peed everytime she's sat down.  And I don't have to remind her to go, she comes and tells me.  Now all we have to do is get this pooping thing down and we'll be good to go.  During the day at least.

Potty training is so hard! I don't like potty training. Luckily, I like changing diapers less than I like potty training. So, potty training wins out in the end.
