Potty Life!

I know I've done enough posts for the day but I just have to share this with you. Plus if I don't do it right now I'll forget it and it was just too funny not to pass on the laugh.

Potty training has been a challenge. If your kids just did it, then you don't understand quite how I'm feeling right now. We are done potty training Alyssa, finally! She was 3 back in September so you can see how I thought this time would never come. Nothing makes me happier at the moment. Here is what I'm sitting here listening too....

(Alyssa runs to the bathroom and throws up the toilet seat. Must be in a hurry!)
Silence.
"I think I can. I think I can. I think I can." I'm dying with muffled laughter but the self pep talk still goes on.
Then... "oh my" she says.
Silence.
"Mommy, come here I have a surprise for you."

And again I cannot express how happy I am to go and see that surprise. 10 years ago I would've never thought, LOL. So I go down to wipe her but she's already taken matters into her own hands. I ask her if she had wiped, but I already know the answer because there is toilet paper, ummmmm, lets say a bit stuck. haha I love this kid!

Welcome to my life.

  1. we've had an amusing day (to say the least) too. Kevin got me a box of pb cups for v-day (they're my fav.) and this morning i was in the girl's room going through their clothes, packing some away, and getting out spring clothes (yes, one day of warm weather and that's what happens... lol). I thought they were playing awfully quietly.... i went out into their playroom and they were hiding in a corner and had eaten ALL of the pb cups. Khloe immediately said "happy valentines day!" :)
