potty training.
as the title would give away, adam and i are attempting potty training. so far, so good. i wanted to start early, hopefully by the time the new baby comes i have brooke in night diapers, and thats it. im not sure what age is right to start potty training at, but i think it all depends on the child. just like you cant make a child eat, you can't make them learn to pee on the potty. i assumed brooke was ready to start learning, not because she likes to play in the toilet... i know, gross. but because as soon as she gets a wet diaper, she gets out of all her clothes. i think she's ready to learn. we bought her a little potty, and then a seat cover for the toilet. she likes both, and she used both yesterday. we are so proud of her for going on her potty and the toilet, and not on the floor. although im sure thats going to happen a few times. she knows what they are for, and all i have to be there for now is support and reassurance that its okay to make some mistakes. i love her. she's doing so well.

Awwww. This takes me right back 25 years or so. You are right, every kids is different. Jenn wasn't interested, but Alia couldn't wait. I remember her telling me No, no, no one morning and that was it, she was trained. Patience is the key. I don't remember lots of accidents. I think girls are easier.
