Potty Training Toddlers Round 1

  For those of you who do not know me personally, I have three lovely toddlers 4,2,1 years old. My life is a never ending chain of messes. Potty training said toddlers, is also a never ending chain of messes. One can normally handle the endless "misses" and "accidents" in stride until there are two, yes TWO, potty using toddlers in your home. Not only is there never enough toilet paper....(which is NOT cheap) but there apparently are never enough toilets. Heaven help me when toddler #3 decides to take the potty using journey. Let me explain. Toddler 1 (T1) will announce the need to use the bathroom AND what exactly they need to do (poo, pee, or both) also keep in mind that since my children are still in the learning phase they like to announce this in public places as well. Ok, back on track. T1 " I gotta go poop!" followed by a hurried rush to the bathroom sometimes with pants around ankles barely making it in time. At the exact same moment T2 decides via the monkey see monkey do process, that she also needs to use the bathroom.  Thankfully we have two bathrooms otherwise I have a feeling we would have a lot more messes. Going out in public, or :"pub-a-blic-in," as T1 used to call it is a journey that only the bravest of us attempt, and never under any circumstances will we patronize any store that does not have a bathroom. It just doesn't happen.

   Hope you all got a little laugh today. Hope to see you again!
