Potty-training progress for Laurel.

Laurel
Potty-training is coming along slowly but surely. In the past week, Laurel's learned to use a reasonable amount of toilet paper to wipe (she has wiping down without a hitch), has learned to dump her potty cup into the toilet, and is starting to wash her hands by herself afterward without asking for help. On Saturday, she used the potty three times and dumped it into the toilet by herself.

Future goals: flushing the toilet, using the toilet instead of the potty, and peeing in the potty or toilet. I'm getting real tired of pee-smell.

Laurel is looking forward to wearing big-girl panties. I was tempted to put a pair on the refrigerator (we put a sticker on the calendar day each time she uses the potty), but I realized it'd be hard to explain to potential visitors so I'm going to put up a pair in her bathroom instead.

If we visit Vogon's nieces sometime this holiday season, I think it'll be the push she needs. (His youngest niece is a few months older than Laurel and has been potty-trained for awhile, so we occasionally ask Laurel if she wants to be a big girl like his niece.)

Every time I get a whiff of pee-smell, I wonder if there's a Febreze made to spray little kids with. Usually I break out an antibacterial wipe and give her legs a good wipedown, which helps almost as much as a quick shower.
