Potty training continued...

Yesterday was not a good day...you woke up fussy and wouldn't eat anything. So, while I was trying to find you something else to eat or cleaning up your last mess, you managed to poop twice and pee once in the floor...big set back. The first time you pooped you said, "poop!" and ran to the toilet...so that was good and I was happy with that. But, later on when I was vacuuming up your cheez-its you peed in the kitchen a little. Sometimes you're scared of the vacuum and other times your not...I don't really understand that. Then, while I'm doing dishes you start to finish your first poop since you're still not comfortable going #2 on the potty. By that time I was ready to lose it, so I did what any other pregnant woman with hot flashes and headaches who is trying to potty train their toddler would do...I let the sobs begin. Thank God your daddy decided to come home for lunch that day and he walked in just in time. After that, things got better b/c I didn't have to do it alone.
Today you haven't had any accidents, but I did throw the no diapers/undies out the window this afternoon when we headed to Bridgestreet to eat lunch with Daddy again. We tried to get you to use the travel potty in the CRV, but you didn't. You rode the carousel for the first time today which was exciting :)


When we got home I let you play outside for a while and then you said, "poop!" and ran inside to the garage door. So, I ran inside with you and we went to the potty and took off your dry diaper...I saw where you had started to go #2, but didn't. I was impressed that you didn't pee that whole time and that you let me know you had to poop. We still have a ways to go, but I think things are going pretty well. I'm really glad I have your daddy to remind me not to take things so serious and to help me feel like I can "break rules" if I need to...ex. letting you wear a diaper when we go out. I feel so much more relaxed today :)
