I'm Not.

Pottery training is the one thing I've encountered thus far in parenting that I have not enjoyed. I started potty training Anna Cate the day after her first birthday. She was cloth diapered and had started to take her diapers off when they were wet. It has been a different story with Caroline. Cloth diapering didn't work out so great with her for several different reasons. And using disposable diapers has been bliss. I'm selfishly not ready to deal with the messiness and accidents of potty training and I've come up with some really great reasons all summer for delaying the inevitable. I'm out of excuses. Yesterday Caroline brought me a clean diaper from her room and signed "please" because she needed to be changed. Ok, little one, I hear you loud and clear!


We are prepared and ready to start:

  2. Wow! I'm impressed--I haven't even considered it yet with Grayson. He has no clue--and doesn't seem to care!
