Rocking the Potty (or trying to at least)

Braelyn's on again, off again relationship with potty training is back on... For now.

Of course, that doesn't mean that she is always successful in her training practice. This morning, wearing the nice Minnie Mouse panties that Nana purchased for her, we kept asking if she was keeping Minnie dry and did she need to go on the potty. Each time she reassured us that Minnie was in fact dry and that she did not have to go potty.


Then, in an instant, she looked at Mom and casually said "potty." A nanosecond later the living room floor looked like a damn had broken in our house.

All Braelyn could say in disgust is "Mini wet!"

Thankfully, potty training mistakes are easier with laminate floors and after she got over the angst of wetting her beloved Mini Mouse, Braelyn was back on track.


To her credit, Gwendolyn continues to use her training potty several times a day. And, we are proud to report (hopefully without jinxing ourselves), that she still hasn't had a U.T.I. in the year since we started having her use it. Of course, from time to time Gwendolyn likes to show off for her sister because she is so good as using the potty. Recently, she even decided to wear her princess shoes on the potty so Braelyn could see just how stylish one can be while pottying.

Well, have a "super" weekend everyone... Hopefully it will be a dry one for the Castellanos.
