Potty Training
Matter of fact
I knew Jordan was getting to the point when she would be able talk about her difference. I think Sunday was the first day I got to watch her in action. There was a little girl sitting next to her at church who looked over to her mom and said: “That girl doesn’t have an…

Jordan got to celebrate her 31st month birthday by enjoying dinner at a station potluck. We had a TON of food and Jordan got to woo every single person there. She is not worried about being polite (although demanding) and adorable. I’m so amazed to have this big girl in my house. In the last…

We’re all winding down our big mega-vacation. Tomorrow is our final day in Maine before we drive home. It’s a long 24-hour trip in the car — which could be even longer with Jordan’s constant need to use the bathroom. I’m hoping we can get her toilet training back on track – she’s had a…

We’re on the road for our big summer vacation. We’re super lucky to have a great house/dog sitter taking care of things while we’re away. So now we can focus on having fun without worry… Other than the fact that I’m on call for jury duty while I’m away. I’m not exactly sure how to…

I’m so behind on pictures and life stories about Jordan. We got back into town yesterday morning at 3am after spending a long weekend with my Aunt. She’s been battling cancer and we were able to get into town in between chemo treatments. My Aunt is amazing and it was SO great to be with…

Jordan is starting to talk and talk and talk. So I have to write down a couple of funny things she’s saying. When turning on a light she says: “I open the light.”When turning off a light she says: “I close the light.” When Randy was leaving for work yesterday she asked: “You got your…

Jordan and Cam got to go to the local Memorial Day parade in town… And I had not realized, but this was her first chance to watch a parade from the side. She’s been in two homecoming parades, but never sat through one. Funny. She was really interested in all of the cars and waving…

Remember how I was all concerned about this potty thing when we went cold turkey on Sunday? Today Jordan was dry from when we put on the cotton this morning until I put on her bedtime diaper. I’m thinking I might need to give up diapers all together and see what the overnight experience is…

I promise not to blog much more about the potty training experience. Here’s the deal – Jordan will do it when she wants to do it. Yesterday at school, she told her teachers that she needed to pee, but then they got into a spat over who would take off her pants. Jordan wanted to…

I bought the cotton underwear – She’s wearing them and I’ve already had to do two extra loads of laundry. That’s cool, we’re learning. She’s already used the potty more than ever before. And she doesn’t really like it. When she uses the potty, it’s exciting and she’s proud. But she doesn’t like that I’ve…
