Potty Training

I put if off so many times because I wasn't ready to deal with the messes that come with it!  Poor Henry!  Finally one day I thought he was taking a nap but he pooped and decided to change himself........and you can guess what happened.  I guess if I am going to have to clean it up anyway I might as well do it right.  I think I waited long enough that he mostly trained himself and we are doing great its been almost two weeks and I have only done one jean/underware load this week.  He can't decide which toliet he likes better so he uses both, I think he likes the potty chair because then he gets to rinse it out and play in the water.  I wish he wouldn't run around the house before putting his underware back on but I guess its a boy thing.  Or maybe a toddler thing.  The other day he pinched his bum cheeks in the potty chair and insisted that I put bandaids on them so I put little circular ones on, I just laughed what else do you do?  He is still in a diaper at night but he sleeps pretty hard and has wet during his nap a few times including today.  I really with I hadn't let him fall asleep on the couch now I have cushion to clean.  Why do I keep trying to avoid messes?  I have a child.

  1. That's why some apartment owners won't rent to people with pets or children. Messes are part of the parenting bargain.
