It was a blessed day for me when Annika finally was willing to wear underwear and make attempts at using the potty. It was in November and it took her about 2 days to get the hang of it. We are the school that parents should not push the issue, and to our luck, not one of our kids has gone to kindergarten in a pull up, although we did wonder.
However this weekend has proved to be a challenge for our little princess of the panties. While enjoying some Mogel time she decided to wear a leotard for dress-up. I guess she realized a little to late she forgot how to get the contraption off to use the potty. So, rather than pee on the floor....she sat on the potty in full ballerina dress. Laurel was thankful to only have to launder clothes, and not have to steam her carpets!
Maybe the excitement of a three day weekend, or the arrival of our wii that had been gone for a painful 6 days to be repaired got our sweet princess flustered. She came to me during dinner proclaiming that she changed her clothes, underwear and all. I questioned her switch and she said that she was wet. Wet? Yes, wet. Geeze mom, I got "dribbles" on me. A topic we have discussed in our practice of perfect potty routine. On with my preparations...But later when I went to fold laundry.....I sat on the bed which was unmade, and had some of Aaron's hunting pants across it. I folded....and then I felt it....What was a dribble was in fact a very wet pair of undies that was beneath my bum.
Oh, I do hope that in time our little princess of the potty will learn to rule her kingdom well and appreciate the dirty clothes hamper as much my other loyal subjects do. In the meantime I have even more laundry waiting for me.....
