It seems like just yesterday we were bringing home our little 7lb 15oz baby girl home from the hospital. Neither one of us had had too much experience changing diapers but we jumped in head first with our new, sweet, beautiful, and stinky! baby girl, Leah. How something so tiny and precious could make such a mess (there were a few flying poo incidents) was beyond me! Now...27 months later...I'm proud to announce that our Leah Joan is no longer in diapers!!! (insert immense clapping and a cute jingle about "peepee on the potty" here).
We tackled the beast, so to speak, over a 3 day period when Tim was home to help me with Chase. Like everything else she does, Leah took to it right away. After she realized she didn't like the feeling of pee running down her legs, that was it for her. She decided that the potty was a better choice. We went to the store and she picked out Minnie Mouse and Cinderella undies and for the past week we have been accident free! Now only one kid in diapers woohooooooo!
Now I'd like to point out the things no one tells you about your child being potty trained...
*no matter how long they have been sleeping through the night they will start waking up now to use the bathroom...
*"I have to go potty" is the new greatest excuse for getting out of bed and do u really want to take that risk of not letting her go?
*public restrooms become THAT much more disgusting...
*your child will have a newfound discovery of their "parts"
*you will make up more songs and rhymes about bodily functions than you ever dreamed about before becomming a parent
*your child might just tell everyone about her new accomplishment and will expect a high-five and a sticker from each one of them
Anyways I'm so proud of my girl!!!
