We have SUCCESS!!!

FINALLY!!! After months of sporadic and varying success, we have had a successful weekend of #2 and at long last she PEEEEEEEED!!! ON THE POTTY!!! We are celebrating like we just won the Superbowl. She keeps running around the house half naked screaming WE ARE GOING TO DISNEY WORLD!!!!! Yep...just like winning the Superbowl. Cause in my dreams? Those football guys aren't wearing much...


It only took me 3 years longer than most people. Boy are they going to be hating life when she shows up at school tomorrow and they actually have to do bathroom duty with her. Hehehehe. Oh to be a fly on that wall. Most long time readers and friends will know already that the one major hurdle I have had is school and their refusal to help me in potty training her. One teacher even insisting that I quit sending her in pull-ups and start putting her back in diapers. Lately she has been coming home from school in the same pull-up I sent her to school in. Soaking wet. I know because I mark the darn things. In a weird way, I hope she pees all over everything....hehehehe. And just to put a kink in their day? Gonna show up for a spot check. At least once. Maybe twice. The time has come for me to stop spending a fortune on disposables. For my kid to grow up a little. For the school system that has so far failed miserably to be held accountable. OUR success had empowered me. It's time to bring it on!

Oh...and YAY PUNK!!!!!
