Day 4 began with an accident. A rather frustrating accident, but it didn’t really seem to bother me as much as the accidents on day 2. We sat Lily on the potty first thing before changing her from the diaper to her panties. She protested saying that she couldn’t pee. I assumed that this was […]
So, we had a very exciting and quite eventful day today. One of the things I have been dreading through this process is travel. Since the nearest place that I would actually stop to take her to a toilet is roughly a 15 minute drive from our house, trips out of the house are a […]
Yesterday was the second day of our second attempt at potty training Lily. Already a much bigger success than our first attempt since that only lasted one morning. The day started off much the same as day one. Lily sat on the toilet first thing in the morning with no success, was put into panties […]
So, yesterday was the first day of our second attempt at potty training. My expectations were low after the first go around, I anticipated many accidents in the morning and back to diapers by lunch. I was trying to keep positive about the accidents and trying to let Lily know that because she was still […]
As most people reading this will already know, I am expecting an addition to our family in August. We had the same difficulties conceiving this time around that we did the first time. Once we had gotten pregnant with Lily everyone kept telling us how much easier it would be to get pregnant the second […]
So, as I said in an earlier post, Lily has been peeing on the potty for quite a while. At the end of the Christmas holidays we decided to give potty training a try, we will call that Potty Training 1.0. Version 1.0 did not go so well. The idea was that we would put […]
So, Lily is a big toddler, and in all honesty, she has been for quite a long time. I was very hesitant in moving her from her crib to her toddler bed. I didn’t like the idea that she could just get out of bed and get into something that she shouldn’t while we were […]
We recently decided that we needed to start teaching Lily to say ‘Please’ and ‘Thank You.’ It started in the car on the way up to Ontario. She kept asking for snacks and more snacks, so we started saying what she was asking for and adding ‘Please’ to the end. It didn’t take long for […]
Okay, I have been away from this for a while. It is September, with vacations in August and starting up a new dance year this month as well as beginning to babysit for a couple days a week, I have been trying to get myself back into the groove. Not quite there yet, but I […]
6 months late, but Lily’s first birthday party went off without a hitch. We didn’t have as many people as we had expected to get in February due to it being summer vacation time, but Lily didn’t mind. She had lots of little people to play with. The older kids were very helpful with her, […]
