Bathroom Confessions


Katelyn came to me the other day very excited saying, "Wanna go Pinciss Potty!" and I thought excellent! So of course I led her to the bathroom, grabbed the Princess themed potty insert and sat her down. I had heard success stories about Potty Training in a day with a movie and juice and just basically having a party all day in the bathroom-I thought cool let's go for it. I knew Nate had just stocked up on a box of Capri Suns too. I grabbed the Dancing Princess movie(Barbie's Nutcracker DVD), the player, and plenty of juices. So we shimmied and sang and Katelyn was loving life. After the 8th juice box I thought hmmm...maybe I should just let nature take it's course. Well 2 hours and one movie later Katelyn told me her toes were hurting...apparantly I forgot to take her circulation into consideration. So I said farewell to my foiled plans and took Katelyn off the potty just in time for a flood...I really couldn't help but laugh.

HA ha ha!! Yeah, it's murphys law. I'm glad you are good at finding humor in such situations. I think potty training's got to take a lot of it. :-)
