All Aboard the Potty Train -- Hope Springs Eternal
Just when you think you will still be changing their diapers at their prom, they surprise you.
This week, Baby K stood up from play, turned with a startled look, and exclaimed those precious words, "Mama, poo-poo!" Away we dashed to the potty. Who knew a mommy and toddler could run so fast holding hands.
Then the golden moment, or should I say brown. "Hooray! You did it!" reinforced with much cheering, clapping, and dancing.
To which Baby K responded with a slight smile and tilt of her head, as if to say, "Yep, I did it. I knew I could all along. But you, Mommy, make quite a silly dancing monkey. I think I'll do this again sometime . . . when I'm ready."

Hooray!! I've had a few moments like that with my Miss Sophie -- I think that girl is going to potty train herself! Her sister isn't as interested, but that's okay. A friend who just achieved total potty-trained status with her twins says it's easier to focus on one kid at a time.
As a mommy who just went through this with my son... CONGRATS! You're well on your way!! The first step has been totaly taken... now it's just routine!!
Love your blog!!

Thanks for the encouragement and kind words!
Hooray for you and for K! I made Claire really go for it back in July (of course, she was 3 back in May), and now, we are DONE! No more diapers! Oh, the relief! Welcome, friend, you're almost there!
Oh, and I love your new digs. I bow to the woman of many talents.
