For some reason Em thought it was time to wake up this morning at 3:15AM. So much talking at 3:15am.
Daddy sleeping. (Yes, Daddy's sleeping. Shhh)
Sip o' water mommy. Sip of mommy water. (Go to sleep Em)
Sip o' water mommy. (Ok, sit up)
Milk. Milk. (Paul: Do you want me to get her some milk? Me: Daddy's going to get you some milk.)
insert random singing
Mickey phone. Doc phone. (No, Em go to sleep)
Pillow, paci, lovie. (Where's your lovie? Where's your paci?)
On and on and on. For over an hour. She finally fell asleep and Paul's alarm went off for the gym. So between getting up 4 times to pee, Emma, and Paul's early morning I felt like I was having to get every other hour.
So by the time we got up today and I let the dogs out, stopped my bloody nose (fun new pregnancy issue), and made us breakfast we got a late start on potting training. Between 10am and 12pm Em had 3 accidents. Our house smelled like a poorly maintained assisted living facility. At one point I didn't even realize she had peed on the floor until I caught Sasha licking it up. I just let her finish because I had already watched her for 5 minutes wondering why she was licking the floor (I may need to mop tomorrow, this weekend, soon). It is clear she isn't ready for potty training so we are taking a break. I'm not stressed about it. She's smart. She'll get it. She isn't even 2 yet.
I just finished my nightly snack of a homemade strawberry banana milkshake and English muffin. Jealous?

Potty Training day 1
Today started our potty training journey. Holy crap I'm tired. We had a brief period prior to the great illness of Dec. 2012 where Em was excited about using the potty. We lost momentum over the 3 weeks that we were sick. And then I just was too nauseous to worry about poop and peeing in the potty.
Anyways (roll my neck, roll my shoulders, take a deep breath) we decided to go full force today. Well I did wait until after Em's morning poop to start. I just couldn't with the poop and the potty and the gag me.
So after all that Em put her big girl panties on and off we went. I set the timer for every 30 minutes to remind us to use the potty.
No pee on the potty.
No pee on the potty.
No pee on the potty.
I opted to go with a diaper for naptime and thank goodness. Em had saved everything up for naptime apparently.
After naptime it was back in the panties.
No pee on the potty.
No pee on the potty.
No pee on the potty.
Dinner time. Peed all over her high chair, the floor, her socks, part of her shirt/bib/napkin. She was not happy. But we reassured her it was okay to have accidents and we took her up to the tub.
Luckily I live in the frozen northeast so staying home in our sweats all day and working on the potty training is not a hardship.
