The coronation of my princess and her potty.
I wasn't really ready for this. It's not good timing, you see.
Too much going on right now, to start the potty-training process.
And yet, here we are - in the midst of the potty, the treats, the big-girl pants......damn her and her independence.
Since Viv's only turning 2 on Sunday, I wasn't in a hurry to get this started. I figured summer would be a good time to increase her awareness to the joys of peeing in the potty. However, little miss "I'll do it myself", began taking her own diaper off several weeks ago. It's now become a game -an obsession, is more like it. After having my sweet toddler bring me turds, in her hands, three times in one day, I made a rule. If you take your diaper off, you have to sit on the potty. That goes for anyone in my house. But, for now, it's just Viv who is abusing it. Several times, there is an effort made to "go" on the potty, only to, then, pee on the floor- 2 minutes later. But, within the last several days, most of the pee-pee is going into the potty, where it should be. Yay!
The thing is, there are some big changes coming to the Schreiber household, soon. I am afraid this new venture will get lost in the shuffle of parental roles and schedules being shifted. I suppose we will do the best we can and let nature take it's course. I'm just hoping nature doesn't end up on my kitchen floor, anymore.
