It's Potty Time!

Josie has been showing signs and interest in potty training since Christmas time when she was only 15 months old. We have been working a little bit with the potty training, but not much. I am not pressing the issue, because I want her to not get upset and scared of the potty. She is at a point where she will tell you that she has gone potty and occasionally 2 seconds before she goes. So, if she says potty it is one of two things, either she just went and wanted you to know or you have 2 seconds and counting to get her to the potty before she goes. This makes is very difficult to determine which one that it is, because nine times out of ten you do not make it to the potty before she goes, so once you get her diaper off she has already gone. That was until Saturday. Josie went pee pee in the POTTY for the very first time! Yeah Josie! She was so excited! She got a sticker, CANDY, and sported the PEE PEE DANCE! Which I have to say is really darn cute. Each time that she says potty we rush her to the potty, but Saturday marks the first time she succeeded in going in the potty and since then has been the only time she has pee peed in the potty.






Take my photo on the potty, I do not care I will still say "cheese."

You know there is something wrong when your child's potty seat is sitting in your kitchen rather than your bathroom. Well, hey it is in the middle of any path we may travel so, it is easier to try to get her to go potty when we are not making a mad dash for the bathroom. Laugh if you must, but it works for her.

Speaking of the potty issue...poor Brent had a potty situation yesterday. I know what all of you are thinking that I am finally getting Brent potty trained well, no. Brent was getting his baby fix with Presley yesterday as he always does when she is around. He just loves her to pieces. She had been swimming and Brent was cuddling with her when....you guessed it SHE went potty. Her diaper was wet from the pool and he had opt not to but her in a towel due to the heat yesterday. Well, most of you know that babies are ticking time bombs. She did her business and it ended up coming out the sides and top and you guessed it all over on Brent. He had to change his clothes into his swim attire and wear his trunks home to change before going to see his Dad for Daddy's Day. Let's just say Brent and Presley had a little talk about NOT POOPING on Uncle Brent in the future.


Way to go Presley! Way to make us laugh so hard!
