It’s a long weekend in Canada today – there’s no real reason for it, i believe, just to give us a day off in August (but you don’t see me complaining) and we are likely going to Canada’s Wonderland for the second day in a row, even though i’m sportin’ a really lovely sunburn. (yes, i was wearing sunscreen. no, it didn’t seem to take….)
yesterday we did the water park and today we’ll do the regular park.
have a GREAT day. i know i will.
on Saturday the husband and i got the brilliant idea that three days off of work was the perfect time to toilet train Isabella. you see, we had a window. she was doing GREAT. lovin’ the toilet. so, off came her diapers. we said “bye-bye diapers” on Saturday morning. She and i had a morning alone – with only one accident. not too bad, i thought. going from 8-12 and only peeing on the kitchen floor once was pretty good. so, we braved the storm and took her on a walk to my inlaws. a thirty minute walk. paranoid as hell, i asked her if she needed to pee, um, oh, just about every 3 minutes. she said no. and she was GREAT. no accidents.
we walked into my inlaws. i took her straight to the toilet. “no pee pee mommy. i done! i wipe myself!”
okay, fine. i sat down, put her on my lap, and began to take off her shoes.
and wouldn’t you know…
Niagara Falls.
right on my lap.
sweet jeebus.
we’ve said hello to diapers again. at least for the time being.
