Learning Curve

There seems to be a lot of learning curves to potty training a girl.

Scratch that........make that potty training in general.

Here's my list so far.  Some of these are learning curves for the pottier and some for the grown-up.


  1. A grown up potty is scary.  It is much scarier at a public restroom that stinks of random and nasty smells anyway.  It's catastrophic at WalMart.
  2. Never lean in to pull up your toddler's underwear while a public toilet is flushing.  The backsplash from a WalMart toilet onto your face may cause you to run thru a car wash....naked.
  3. Girls can't pee like boys.  And they sure can't pee off of things.
Which brings me to today.

Macey peed on the porch.

Now this was shocking because she has kicked butt at potty training after day 3.  Starting on day 4 (and we're now on Day 13) she has not had one drop of pee in her underwear.  Completely bone dry from morning until night-including naps!

So when Josh runs inside to tell me she peed on the porch, my Mommy instinct kicked in and I knew that something was amiss.

She tried to pee like Josh.






So close....yet so far.

But how can you be mad when they're trying to play so nicely together?



And even if they are still in their PJ's (hey-no judging here please)!


I love these kids!
