As I seem to start every post these days, it's been a while. Summertime means outdoor fun, pool time, and not a lot of time to sit in front of a computer.
It also means my girls are growing. My baby has graduated to toddler status, and my preschooler seems to be growing like a weed. Unfortunately, we're still up to our elbows in diapers.
I really thought that once we hit 3, the final vestiges of potty training would figure themselves out. However it doesn't seem to be happening that way. We still get handed a pull-up anytime she has to poop.
Well, until recently anyway. There's been a new twist, and I can't decide if it's a good thing or not. My preschooler has twice now taken the entire process into her own hands. She has gone and gotten the pull-up on her own, put it on herself, done her business, and even climbed up onto the changing table by herself.
But then she took it one step further. She's attempted to change her dirty pull-up without telling me or my husband. So twice now he's walked in on her trying to figure out how to wipe herself.
It's not been pretty, folks. Comical yes, clean no. So again, I ask you - is this a step in the right direction or are we traveling along a messy tangent and not really going anywhere?
