Potty Training



My child is a genius. She has trained herself to use the potty at only 18 months old! I haven't spent any time whatsoever educating her about the potty but my MIL bought a little Disney Princess Potty Chair and Heidi has started using it without any prompting. She simply comes up to us, asks to go potty, and with a little help taking off her clothes, she pees in it and then wipes herself! This little girl does not need any "training", she's already figured it out by herself! I've never seen or heard of anything like this in all my years nannying. I'm definitely a proud mama today! (until the next temper tantrum that is haha). I just can't believe it! I love that little girl!

Other things we've been loving:


Woody Allen's latest, Midnight in Paris


Eating 5 Guys for breakfast lunch and dinner (and dessert)
 (ok i'm exaggerating a little)

Cadillac Margaritas

Heidi's hysterical tired laugh that she discovered after one too many pacifier dips in daddy's tequila

Family pool time

Family Bible Study on the balcony

Our new bedroom fans

Two new adorable pettiskirt dresses for baby Heidi (will post pics soon!)

No housing payment! Yay.

So jealous right now. I've heard little boys take their sweet time potty training. If I could count down to 18 months, I'd write a sonnet to the diaper gods. Smart girlie you have there!

Congratulations! But don't be surprised if she suddenly "forgets" how to use it. Sometimes they revert temporarily because of wanting more of mommy's attention. That's awesome tho. Special Sweetie you got there. <3

Well I've been working on the potty training. Half the time she goes, half the time she doesn't or will scream and cry until she accidentally overexerts herself and consequently pees. So hard to figure out what is going on in that little head!
