Diaper Free!!!

I haven't been able to do much of anything lately.  We are currently on Day #4 of quarantine for potty training.  Oh, how I DESPISE this part of the toddler years.  However, I learned my lesson the first time by waiting too long to potty train B.  I blamed a new baby, moving to a new country, and starting school.  Pretty good excuses!  I planned on doing this at 22 months with Vivi like "all" the books say, but to be honest, I wasn't ready with visitors and holidays.  Anyone who has children close together will also tell you: potty training child #2 with (young) child #1 demanding attention is definitely not easy.  It's also hard not being able to go anywhere.  I went grocery shopping and stocked up before, and I rearranged for someone to take Bianca home from school.... thankful for friends:)   

Prior to this week, Veronica had never gone on the potty or acted interested.  For a little girl who had no idea what was coming, she's done VERY good!  

Day 1: never made it to potty.  Accidents all day.  This mama and child were both exhausted.  
Day 2: made it half the times to the potty.  Wet at nap.
Day 3: 1 accident during the day, stayed dry all through nap.
Day 4: mommy escaped to buy groceries for 2 hours.  Daddy supervised.  During this time, 2 accidents.  (Aghh....... we won't blame him).  

She's done AMAZING I think.  She hasn't had a diaper on for 4 days now, and we are all happy about that!  She does wear a nighttime diaper just in case, but she's basically dry every morning. Such a big girl!!!


I plan on taking her to the morning program she regularly attends tomorrow.  She goes from 8-noon and I feel confident in her ability to tell someone when she needs to go.  Wish us luck and say some prayers!

And the Cisel household is DIAPER FREE!!!
