What I love and What I hate Wednesday

I LOVE that Kaden doesn't scream bloody murder when I have him sit on the potty anymore. This is such a HUGE step in the right direction. Its so much easier to stick to it when they are more agreeable to it. This morning when I got him out of bed, I told him to quickly go sit on the potty. He said "ok!" Of course I am a broken record now too..."do you have to pee?","do you have to pee?", "do you have to pee?"

I HATE how messy this whole thing can be. But this is a time when I am grateful for hardwood floors! Instead of having him go commando, I have been putting underwear on him (Which he looks so cute in!) just so there is something there to absorb the liquid. And I have blankets on the couch and chairs because those are the things you can't very well put in the wash machine. Yesterday he peed in the toilet 2 times, peed in his pants 3 times and pooped on the floor once.

And now today is a new day. But I also hate that I feel trapped in the house. I worry about leaving the comforts of his little potty. He is terrified of public bathrooms (automatic toilets) and I hate to break the stride and put a diaper on him. So for now we are stuck here while Todd is at work till this evening and I am out of milk! Whats a girl to do???
