Billy and I have been wanting to start potty training for awhile now. We knew Ryan was ready because whenever she’d pee or stink in her diaper she’d take it off and say, “stink.” I was a little nervous and selfish because really, how many moms (or dads…although dads are at work all day) like to clean up tons of accidents? We finally decided that once I finished teaching preschool for the school year that we’d start. I finished teaching last Thursday and potty training began on Friday. With the exception of going to the store, naps, and bedtime Ryan is in panties all day, which also means usually only panties. Instead of changing outfits I thought it’d be easier to just change panties if she had an accident. I’m happy to say that after 1 week she’s only had 1 stinkin’ accident. We’re still working on the peeing part. Luckily almost all the accidents have been on tile (with the exception of her peeing all over my kitchen counter yesterday…thank goodness for Kirkland Sanitizing Wipes). It’s only been 1 week, but so far so good. I know exactly what every mother is feeling when I hear/see stories about them running across the store to get to the potty…when they got to go, they got to go and don’t give much warning. Our goal is to have Ryan potty trained by the time the baby comes. Hopefully it won’t take that long.
