So it's been a while... Things have been crazy to say the least. Sometime soon I'll post about the trailer project Shawn and I have been working on - complete with before and after pictures.
This post however, is to commemorate a momentous occasion: Adria has officially started potty training. Not by the choice of her parents, I might add... She's been telling us when she needs her diaper changed for a while now, and she knows very well what a potty is, so we figured we should at least pick up a potty chair for her so that we have it ready. Well, the day we got it she was so excited to sit on it - I was just happy that she would sit on it (she didn't like trying to sit on a regular toilet, I'm sure in no small part because she felt like she was going to fall in...)
The next day (yesterday, 10/21/2009) when we got home from work/day care she told me she wanted to sit on the potty, so I took her in and helped her sit down - figuring that she just wanted to sit on it like she had done the night previous. Surprise surprise when she actually used the potty correctly! Then a couple hours later she did it again! She didn't pee in her diaper at all that night. Now I promise that this isn't going to turn into a 'mommy blog' but I guess I want to brag just a little here... - Is potty training supposed to be this easy? I'm sure we have a long way to go, and maybe it's just the excitement of a new potty, but I was very proud of my little girl yesterday. I can only hope that the rest of this transition goes as smoothly. I guess I should probably get some pull-ups now....
