Here we go again. I've been anxiously waiting for no more diapers in this house, but also definetly one of the most challenging and not so fun parts of parenthood for me, I think Chad would agree too. Yes, very stressful and wanting to throw in the towel at times, and other times when you do start seeing all that hard work paying off and how rewarding it is for both the child and parent! I thought Bray would be the one that would give me the most issues, but he actually surprised me and now it seems to be Bryn that may give me gray hair before this is over with!
I've really wanted to make it a goal to get her potty trained by her 3rd birthday and I'm thinking that may be conquered soon hopefully! Its a little trickier to potty train when I'm trying to tend to other kids at the same time, so our 1st day today wasn't successful, but I was not going to throw in the towel just yet. I knew I had lots of distractions and wasn't fully attentive to her every need, so we'll just keep on trying. I approach potty training cold turkey. No pull-ups, no advice books, just lots of underwear, a timer, a reward when they do go(I use M&M's in a little gumball machine) a ton of patience, lot of laundry and cleaning and maybe a few drinks at the end of the day! ha! :) we'll see if it works for B this time, stay tuned!~
