Day 22. Trained.


It's a definite fact that girls mature faster than boys. My trio are living proof.

Kate was a piece of cake to potty train. This summer, I was getting the kids in their swimsuits so that we could play in the inflatable pool outside. I didn't feel like wasting swim diapers (they ain't cheap!), so I told the kids to tell me if they had to potty. Kate did. And she hasn't worn a diaper since. It was as easy as that. I think she's only had 2 accidents ever. She wears a Pull-Up to bed, but it is never even wet in the morning. She won't even let me come in the bathroom to supervise anymore. She always yells, "Go on, Mama! Leave me alone!"

The boys, well, they're another story. Chase has had a few successes, but nothing consistent and he hates underwear (even though he picked them out himself). Reece wants nothing to do with any of it. 

I keep reminding myself that this won't last forever. There will be an end to diapers. Someday.
