She tells us when she pees and when she poops she can't sit down and that she needs her diaper changed. She will go on the potty every now and then but just doesn't want to sit there. I can't wait tell we don't have to buy diapers for her as I already have started buying diapers for the little one on the way. <br /><br />I hope things go smooth!!Erinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04230621614174949085noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6597304169251165379.post-43276549687700285712009-09-20T19:45:47.490-04:002009-09-20T19:45:47.490-04:00I am so glad that stage in my life is done!

Who would have ever thought we'd be so consumed with what color and how much, and apparently it looks like we'll be in that mode until our kids are well potty trained. :) Keep truckin', Mama! He'll get there and all of us will rejoice with you. I'll even eat some M&M's... ;)LeAnnahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10360378882035668129noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6597304169251165379.post-68896453433337806472009-09-17T22:54:38.892-04:002009-09-17T22:54:38.892-04:00stay positive!

My son is also very independent, so to keep up with him all day will be tough!<br /><br />BTW, I am rarely without my kids- I went out by myself to get my hair done (a rare treat) when she was finished with my hair, and before I paid I said "hang on, I'll be right there. I gotta go potty." No kids in sight and there I am using the 'p' word! We had a good laugh about it when I came back out. But I was still a little embarrassed when I walked out...<br /><br />Keep up the good work!Jinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12108711189149099676noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6597304169251165379.post-63134071371998391402009-09-17T20:34:04.961-04:002009-09-17T20:34:04.961-04:00I cant even imagine how much all those diapers add...I cant even imagine how much all those diapers add up to!
