Update!

While we're waiting patiently for the April showers that bring May flowers to end...I will give everyone a quick update as to how things are going here in the Clark household. Potty training is no longer training. Riley hasn't worn a diaper in over a month and we never looked back. She tells us that she needs to go to the potty and what I have learned about a child who has learned how to use the potty regularly is that she has to use the potty EVERYWHERE we go! No seriously, if we go somewhere we always go potty before leaving. But the minute you get to the store you hear "I have to go potty." About 90% of the time she doesn't actually have to go - she just wants to check the bathroom out. It is kind of a pain - but I can't say no for fear that the one time I do she will end up having an accident. Better safe than sorry! Bedtime is a breeze these days too. I cannot remember the last time I dreaded bedtime. Riley is into the routine and it is working for ALL of us. This is how well it's working out for us:



Oh how it is wonderful to have our lives in order (for now)!!

LOL we are on the same potty train. We have pooped in every potty EVERYWHERE, including Olive Garden, Magic Kingdom, Hollywood Studios, Rain Forest Cafe', but our favorite bathroom is Kohls. The second we walk in Kohls she says I have to pee. Then we go at least 2 or three more times while we are there. We are happy to be joining her on the potty train.
