A moment with Mindi’s thoughts…Calm down it’s only a moment!

IMG_1710 Don’t you just hate it when you run out of clean socks?! Although, these are a hot number, I have to say…

 

IMG_1708 See this blonde piece of cuteness? Well, she loves that hat! If she see’s it, it is on her head. It has even gone  to church with us! Some days, this is all she is wearing! With this sudden desire to potty train, she is in constant nudist mode and it’s really cute but we’ve had an incident of peeing on the table, yes, ON the table, pooping on the kitchen floor and embarrassment at answering our door since the visitor’s first sight is a neked little girl on the stairs!

She has become obsessed with bodily functions, too! Whenever I do a ginormous belch dainty little hiccup or (I don’t really fart, ladies don’t do that so this is completely hypothetical) fart, she giggles and then says “coos me”.  Now, whenever she sits on the potty and is successful she says, “I did it, YAY!!” I’ve never cheered so much for urine in all my life! I’m worried she will still want an audience and cheering when she’s 17. I know I did! The last thing is “moogers”. She is in to wiping her nose with a tissue (better than my shirt, I always say) and if there is something on it she immediately shows me and says, “Ook, mugger, YAY!”

I had no idea these gross things deserved admiration but whatever makes my 2 year old happy.

Another side effect of potty training is half-used diapers and panties being found all over the house as we attempt to keep her covered up. At this moment there is a pair of panties on my kitchen table. If I didn’t know any better I would think ElRey had some serious explaining to do, although, I don’t think I can blame the diapers on him…I hope…

One final thought. All this time I thought my house was a mess because Mama’s going to college. Turns out Mama’s just a crappy house keeper. Deal with it.

We just started potty training mode this week so I feel your pain. It is funny to see us cheer for pee in the potty. Madi keeps asking me why we are making a big deal of it. Come on just join in - it is fun that's what I always say!

Good luck!

Potty training at our house led to nonstop talk of poop and butts. Fun.

Considering the extent of my potty training experience is, tossing my dog in the back yard when he starts sniffing around, I do have one question. "How do you end up with a 'half used diaper'?"

sometimes it takes momma finding something more important than clean baseboards.

I love the socks... you know you're in trouble when they are mismatch. one valentines day sock and one christmas

Ah isn't potty training so fun! My mom, in trying to help motivate a friend of mine kids, did the potty dance. My friend was stuck doing it from that day forward. :)

Oh the joys of potty training! She IS a pile of blonde cuteness though. It's amazing how once you're a Mom, your life is all about poop. Is there poop? How much? Too much? Too little? Weird color? Wrong density? Etc. Poop. IT's the lowest common denomiter of Motherhood.

I'm a crappy housekeeper too. Yah for us!

A lot of poo and poo receptacles and poo manufacturers in one's house could in fact make one a "crappy" housekeeper.


Genius.
