Poo!

Potty Princesses

I'm proud to announce that my darling Elianna Ray sat upon her throne for only the second time and put a large pile of poo in it!

A certain unnamed toddler *ahem* *cough* *Evangeline* *cough* has set a very bad example of potty etiquette, basically refusing to poo in the proper place. We started six months ago and enjoyed mild success for a while before she completely quit so I backed off and after a bit tried again... and again... Yeah, not doing so great in the doodie department.

And yet, my sugar Ray Ray got the idea right away! She's a Super Duper Pooper!

Evangeline just looked at her with a face that said, "Showoff!"

I never would have imagined actually praying for potty success, and yet I do. I think the Lord may chuckle at my pleas, but He's on my team. I can feel it!

Umm, Happy Poo! :)
Send some of that talent our way. We are getting ready to break out the potty chair. Tonight we set up the big girl bed so that's the next step.

This post cracks me up!!! Bring those girls over here and maybe they can give my 3 year old some tips!!! UGH. Whoever said girls were easier to potty train has not dealt with my girly! :) Think of you often and enjoy so much following your family's journey through life. Blessings~ Shelly

It was so great to meet you at BU-08! Your children are all so wonderful and polite and friendly, etc, etc. You have some pretty amazing pictures - do you have them posted somewhere that I could order some? Your blog looks great too. I've been out of blogland a bit so hadn't seen the makeover! Happy Anniversary to Ray Ray too :)

Yeah Ray Ray!

That picture is too cute! Definitely one for the scrapbook. I'm convinced that potty training is the reason God didn't allow me to have twins, He KNEW I couldn't handle it ;o)

What a precious post!! I'm so glad I stumbled on to your site. Our newest neice is from China and her parents are considering a sister or brother for her from Ethiopia.

Our kids are grown, but we homeschooled for 6 years while we were in and out of Central Mexico doing mission work. Those were great times. Thanks for stirring my memories!

God bless...
