Potty Bear

Some mornings, when Owen wakes up, we're told Huggy pooped during the night and needs his diaper changed. So we take Huggy and "change" his diaper. Well this morning, Huggy had to go potty but didn't like diapers anymore so he wanted to go on the big boy potty.


Owen is not a fan of the big boy potty and I was hoping this was a sign he was warming up to the idea of using it. But, in an unfortunate turn of events, Lion (Owen's other favorite stuffed animal) also had to go potty but Lion hates the big boy potty so he pooped on the ground.

Hopes were dashed and we instead talked about how we don't potty on the floor. (When Niah was potty training at the daycare, she would sometimes potty on the floor. Dawn taught the kids the mantra, "Don't potty on the floor!" and Owen repeats it, but I fear curiosity might get the better of him one day.)

Sounds like fun times!! If Owen ever does decide to go on the floor, like his stuffed counterparts, I hope it's on the floor outside. That was a big one around here. Thank goodness it is getting chilly out. I hope Tejas won't be tearing outside to pee as often. This was a common event over the summer. But you guys have warmth year round--- Ahhh, the joy of free peeing can be had all the time. Good luck.
