senoritafish | Potty training no more... (Reply)

I think I forgot to document a month or two ago, that we ran out of diapers one day. Avalon had been only wearing them at night, so I asked her, "Do you think you can spend the night without them?" She affirmed this, so after making she went potty before bedtime, she did sleep through the night without incident. She had been pulling the same trickas Angus had, waiting for her night diaper to poo, so we stressed that she'd have to do it in the potty from now on. It was about three days, but finally I heard a yell from the bathroom, "Moooo-ommeeee!" and the mission was accomplished. Whee! There've been a few accidents here and there, usually if we forget to wake her up in the morning and she sleeps too long (like me, she's a very sound sleeper), but yay! After 7.75 years, no more didees in this house!

Last night, I asked my daughter to get her clothes off and hop in the tub. I don't know what she did to her hair, but she had so many knots it needed slathering with conditioner to comb them all out. When I looked down at her clothes, I noticed that under her pants she had been wearing first one pair of her own underwear, two pairs of her brother's, and then a blue pair of her own over those.

Maybe she misses the confinement?
