Things I have heard on this potty training journey.
“Yeah, yeah, yeah (thick with sarcasm) we’ll try again later.”
“I want to wear diapers.” Now that one was very sad.
“Get outta here so I can pee-pee.”
“Big, gigantic poopy!” And it was too.
“I gotta try.” As she beats her little fist in her hand. She gets her dramatics from me I don’t know where.
“Don’t cry little poopy.” (?)
Might I just add that in the last four days I have talked more about potty goings than in all my three-plus-decades.
Teagan is also trying to get out of going to sleep at night by getting up over and over again saying she has to go. I’m torn because I don’t want to discourage her as the whole process is to learn to go to the potty. But at the same time she is squeezing out a tablespoon at a time just to get out of bed. She has literally gotten out of bed 15 times in the last 2.5 hours.
I am sorry to say that even at the age of 4, and well beyond the "potty training" stage, "bathroom talk" continues. Just the other day Ivy told me (with the utmost seriousness) "I have to pooppy mom, and YOU have to be patient so this can happen!" Hu? I just shrugged and walked away before she could tell me to "stop laughing"
