Rolly Polly bugs and Potty

The other day Abby comes into the house with a hand full of this...



Gross. Rolly Polly bugs. She's not afraid of anything (unlike her mom). I told her to get outside with them and gave her a little cup to put them in. A few minutes later she's crying hysterically. I go outside to see what's the matter, and she says she spilled the rolly pollies. They are all over in the GRASS and she's devastated. So I kneel down and help her pick them all back up. Hmmmm. Didn't know picking up rolly polly bugs out of the grass was one of the things I'd be doing when I became a mom of a little girl.



Made this cute potty jar for Abby for her treats. So far, it's worked like charm. The jar has starbursts in it (her favorite), and when she goes #1 or #2 she gets one. For the past couple of weeks she's been going to the potty about 5-6 times a day to get a treat. She'll squeeze one little poop out, then an hour later go in and squeeze another little poop out. She's so darn funny! But she mostly still pees in her diaper. She's the opposite of Kason and any other potty training kid I know. She pees in her diaper and poops in the potty! But hey, we'll take what we can get.

Gross! I don't think I would have acted very calmly if that's what my child brought me. That's a lot of them at one time!

Wow look at that fancy potty jar. Will you make one for my Cassidy? She is highly entertained by the whole potty thing right now but I'm not a good or consistent trainer...and I don't have a crafty bone in my body. Guess it all went to the Taylors...you rock!

Tason is doing the same thing; pooping in the potty, but peeing in his diaper. :)
