Potty Training Adventures

yes.  potty training.
because my 20 month old wants to.
that's right.  be jealous, parents of toddlers everywhere!

I have the most awesome little girl ever.  She amazes me everyday with her awesome-ness.  Following are my Facebook status updates of the last 3 days chronicling the beginning of Munchkin's Potty Training Adventures. Because these are the fun things that should be in a journal of some kind, and not get lost in the black hole of Facebook status updates.

munchkin today went to the bathroom and kept saying "poop, poop", then crawled into the tub fully clothed and pooped in her diaper. anyone else think it's time for potty training???


Saturday at 8:55pm 
we got a potty chair last night for the munchkin. and every few hours, we ask naomi is she needs a diaper change or if she would like to use her potty-- she chooses the potty every time, but hasn't actually gone potty in the potty yet... at least she's excited to learn!

potty training update: naomi came to us and said "poop. poop" so we asked if she needed a change or wanted to use the potty. she choose the potty-- then went pee and asked to take a bath. so i put her in the tub where she proceeds to squat and start pooping, so i pulled her out and sat her on her chair. and she pooped in the potty chair. Munchkin potty training WIN!

munchkin successfully used the potty about 50% of the time today. She missed the potty while we were at church and during her nap, otherwise-- she's been perfect! Love that little girl so much!

side effect of potty training: munchkin has learned how to take off her diaper and thinks she can just run around the house naked all the time... oh boy! luckily, she usually goes to the potty immediately after getting naked, so i haven't found any surprises around the house... yet. *keeping my fingers crossed*

and here are some more cute munchkin antics that haven't made Facebook
monday, dec 19: after going potty, naomi stood up and said hppily, "i went potty!" and then did a little dance.  too cute; i only wish i'd had the camera.


naomi is afraid she is going to fall in the big potty, so she'll only go on her little potty chair.  


naomi gets a few mini-marshmellows for going pee-pee in the potty, and an oreo for going poop in the potty.  once, she saw the marshmellows sitting on the counter (after i'd made hot cocoa) and asked for one.  i told her she had to go potty for it, so she went to the bathroom and went potty right there.  she's so smart!
