Can I have a clip on for my nose....please?!

Potty Training. Or, as we call it...rearrange your life so you are no further than 10 feet from a potty suitable for me, parent training.

The GREAT THINGS we look to the distant future for:

     Diaper Free Shopping Carts (First time in 10 years...eeeep)
     No longer wondering what they ate as we hunch down on the floor trying to wipe a bum that is red with a rash because no one told Mommy that O pooped, least of all O.
     Independence from the who died in your pants question.
     No more Blow Outs!
     Diaper Leak Free Nights!
     Financial Independence from Pampers. Hahahahahahaha.....I really should have bought stock in Proctor and Gamble when we had the chance...that would have paid for itself.
   
The AWFUL THINGS facing us soon:

     No you cannot pee in your pants...there is no diaper to catch it.
     Buying stock in Febreeze (who manufactures this)
     No you cannot Poop in your pants either.
     The "Oh I forgot to use the potty" statement.
     Wet hips.
     Puddles inside public places.
     The Drip from the bottom of grocery cart.
     Laundry, from what should have been a diaper blow out, but you were wearing big kid pants, so that makes it 10 times worse.
     Long car rides. Nuf said.    


The NOT SO TERRIBLE, BUT STILL BAD THINGS in the not so distant future:

     Sorting out the underwear of 4 males, 3 who wear character pants
     The potty rush in line at the grocery store
     Losing my baby, my last baby to big boy status =( ~ =) I am inbetween here...

Fact is this has been a long time coming. I am not really sure what I am going to do with all the extra time that I would normally have been changing a diaper...let along the extra 20-40 bucks a week saved on not buying diapers. I know they grow up fast, but I can't be out of this stage fast enough!
