Julianna is officially potty trained and in four days. I am shocked that it worked that well. She keeps checking her Teddy to see if she's dry and telling her what a good job she's doing. It's soooo cute! Christian is still a work in progress but is so willing to sit and chill on the potty chair. He just drinks so much! He's not a huge fan of pretending with the bear but he does give it
big bear hugs so who knows.
They were reading tonight and all I kept thinking was please don't potty on the rug or pillows.
The training pants don't hold much.
The teddy bear worked like a charm for Julianna and they also love adding Elmo stickers to their posters. The "treats" weren't that big of a motivator after the first day but they
don't get many sweets so that's okay with us!
"Duck Goes Potty" is the book that turned on the light bulb for Julianna though. Every time she goes she says, "just like Duck".
Emerson has been very patient through this process. Today Julianna asked to go potty ("Need to potty Mommy, hurry, hurry") during Emerson's bottle so she waiting very patiently (for 10 minutes) while we did "business".
I caught her talking to Lexus today (between hiccups) while the twins were napping.
In the bath tonight.
Julianna has really warmed up to "our baby" over the past couple months. Daddy interrupted her singing. She usually says the title of the song she's going to sing and then proceeds to shout it out. Sometimes if you join in you get shushed.
Despite our best efforts to remain old school we have given in and created a blog to share the joys of parenting twins plus one with family and friends. Enjoy!
