The Bottom Line


Don't we all wish we could sport Tinkerbell on our bums?

I thought I'd give a little potty training update, since it's been a daily obsession around here.



*Even though Dora the Explorer's voice vibrates at the same frequency as a migraine headache, I will support her in underwear form for the cause. (See above picture.)

*Madelyn has ended her month-long potty strike and is no longer terrified of panties.

*The girls stay dry for several hours every day, and even two trips to Target last week.

*Poop is still a whole different story.

*Maddie usually gives half of her potty treats to London.

*The process would have been two months shorter if I had realized Maddie will do anything for a Hershey's kiss.

*We THINK we are through the worst.

*I am now considering writing a book called, "Potty Training Your Twins in JUST 297 Days."

HAH! Dora's voice really is hard to listen to right? I've never even seen an episode and I know this. I would read your book by the way and the cover could be this picture with your girls & you--all sporting underwear hats!

Can I order a copy of that book now, but have you customize it for one really stubborn girl? Hershey kisses huh? Nice work. I am so proud of the girls for staying dry, but even more proud of you for living to tell the tale. What a great mom you are. I love that you have counted the days, you are so funny.

I feel you on the poop. for some reason I can't get this kid to poop on the potty on a regular basis. I am going to try to force him to poop every morning. I can't stand cleaning out poopy underwear. It's ridiculous. I'll let you know if you can even force a kid to poop. You never know
