Potty training, okay it's actually two words. We are getting to this point now with Journey. The other day he was having some nakie time and told me that he had to poo. And unbelievably he actually did, several times. He'd poo, look in the potty chair, empty it out into the toilet then sit and do it all over again. About 5 times. A couple hours later he went on the potty again. Quite a feat for a not quite two year old.
Now you think I'd be jumping for joy but I'm actually kind of sad. I'll miss my pretty diapers. I know I'm a weirdo. But it's also a sign that he's growing up, that he's not a baby anymore. That's what really makes me sad.
I asked him this morning if he was my baby or my big boy. He said my baby. Wahhh! Why do they have to grow up so fast?!?

I know just how you feel. Good luck Elaina! I hope it goes smoothly.
It is sad b/c it is a huge symbol of babyhood floating away and boyhood coming.
I am actually sad for you reading this. Big hugs hon....I wish they would stay little just alittle bit longer...
It's so hard. It makes you want to Freeze time for awhile and let them stay little. Sometimes I look at my kids and I Seriously wonder where the time went. :(
I sooooooo understand :(
