Potty Training

Ever since K peed and pooped in her potty once about a year ago and got scared to death after she saw what she produced, we haven't made any progress in the potty training business. She never showed any interest, we didn't want to push, so the potty was put away until last week.

We were at our friends' house playing in the pool and K saw little Liv use her potty. She got so excited that she actually helped herself and used Liv's potty with success!

After we got home, K kept saying: "Potty, potty", so I took her to the bathroom, sat on the toilet, and she peed!!! 10 minutes later we did the same thing; 5 minutes later we did it again. For the next couple of hours, we went to the bathroom and sat on the toilet (not always with success) about 15 times. As exciting as it was, it ended the same day. K is back in her diapers and the potty is now out in the living room waiting for K to show some interest in it again. Until then, we'll keep waiting... We're not in a rush.

ha! Love this! I so agree with you about rushing K (or any kid!) to potty train! You're such thoughtful parents :)

You know Adela is K's age and she is still not showing interest, and she goes to daycare where older kids go potty all the time. It'll happen when she's ready.
