I’m a big girl!

So a little background first.  A few months ago, my Mom and Dad foolishly decided to try potty training me.  I couldn’t articulate that I wasn’t ready so I showed them by having 10 accidents in a row.  Needless to say they decided to put things on hold a little bit.  There were two other failed weekend attempts since then too.

Well a couple weeks ago, my parents heard about a magical travel potty that kids seem to love.  A few days later we were at the store and came across them.  I picked out the color I wanted and went to bed without thinking about it further.

The next morning though something clicked.  I woke up, demanded the potty be opened, and immediately used it.  I then proceeded to use it all day without any accidents!  I graduated to wearing big girl underwear that day and ever since.  It’s been over two weeks including a trip to Maine where my parents were extra worried but I passed with flying colors!

Now that I’m such a big girl, I decided to finally try riding the bicycle I got for my last birthday and haven’t paid any attention to since then, even though I walk past it several times a day.  I went up and down my block a handful of times on day one and have taken it out as much as possible since.  It’s so much fun!  I am not good at balancing on my own yet, but I’ll get there soon…

Until next time dearest readers.

  1. Not only do you wear big girl underwear, you also sleep in a big girl bed! You are growing up (a little too fast) and it is so exciting to see! I am looking forward to seeing your big girl bed and spending Christmas with you! Your balance will come – even at my old age I still have trouble balancing!!
