Well, I bit the bullet and started potty training Lorelei this week. I was so nervous about it all, but I know that I need to get on with it because Parker will be here soon! I am trying a book that was recommended to me called Potty Training in a Day. Sounds pretty ambitious I know!
I did not follow it exactly; sort of the same way I didn't do babywise by the book, but the method worked for us. I was very impressed after the first day when she woke up asking to go "teetee on the potty", but that definitely does not mean that there have not been frustrations. It is a process, that takes a lot of time, but it is rewarding, and I know I will look back on it and be glad that it is done.
On Monday before we started I sat down with Lorelei during breakfast and said a prayer with her. When I said amen and looked up she had her hands folded by her face with the sweetest smile. It was a precious moment!
We are getting very close to the arrival of the baby brother. We have decided that his name is going to be Parker (middle name still undecided). We are not nearly as ready for him as we were for Lorelei. I have a long list of to-do's that seem like they are never going to get done! I need to really get started on those things.
A little shout out to Ben. I know my grammer is probably horrible, but please don't judge me! :)
