Big Guh

November 23, 2005 by Alison Hodgson 5 Comments

Someone has been wearing big girls (a.k.a. underpants) ALL day. This morning she asked to wear them so I put them on her. She stayed dry until her nap when I switched her into a diaper but she was dry when she got up from her (admittedly short) rest.

Cue the music, “It’s a whole new world…”

My other kids I trained late but it only took one day. I have been trying to summon the strength to lock myself in the bathroom with the Bean and rave enthusiasm and encouragement for several hours. I was hoping she would just train herself, which, apparently, she has.

God bless her.

She is feeling pretty fantasgic since she knows she gets to take a gymn class when she is potty trained. This starts after Christmas, right before she turns three and is a Big Girl. All day long I have heard, “I’m a Big Guh. I’m wearing my big guhs.”

We won’t talk about the little poo that sqeaked its way out into her panties while I raced her to the bathroom.

To endless days of a dry Big Girl and her big girls!

A happy happy Thanksgiving to you too.

    One thing at a time… 🙂 It takes most of us YEARS to learn how to be uptight enough not to let it all spill out. haha!

    I hope you are having a wonderful Thanksgiving.

    Plant big obnoxious kisses on your kids for me.

    What a big guh. Our big guh, the yellow-haired child, turned three in October and has been a week without diapers (she has wet the bed twice, but we’re hoping the last two nights were anomalies).

    Happy Thanksgiving!

    Has anyone heard of a boot camp or private school for potty training?

    Is it too early to potty train at 1 year of age?

    (Yes, I heard of those moms who “potty train” their kids at birth…I’m not one of those ambitious souls.)
