Ahhh....potty training.
My daughter is in serious potty training mode. We finally got to the point of throwing the diapers away and just switching to panties. She is doing quite well, but I am not comparing her to anyone else. I have learned my lessons with comparisons. I have wised-up from a mommy perspective.
I took the kids to the pediatrician. They both went at once. Very exciting. Sometimes, my kids amaze me. They were both awesome! Not a peep out of either of them. They were calm and sweet. Each one played nicely in the corner while their sibling got an exam.
Before the appointment, we talked about the potty at the doctor's. Isis knew to ask mommy to go potty when she had to. And at the very end of the appointment, she asked to go potty and we went to the potty. She didn't have to go. Of course she didn't have to go.
You see, I came from work, so I was in my work clothes. Very nice and professional. And Isis, in her panties, had to sit on my lap for the pediatrician to examine her. Well, you know where this is going. Potty training toddler in underpants on dressed-up mommy's lap...ding. We had an accident.
I had to laugh. I had to laugh while it was happening. It was one of those mom moments. I knew it was coming, I just couldn't do anything about it. So, I changed her into a clean pair of panties and she had a good time showing off her panties to the reeceptionist.
I love toddlers.
