Natalie will be two on Sunday. She has started this thing about sleeping in Alli's bed. She always wants to go night night in the bed now. While I don't mind her sleeping in a bed, it makes putting her to bed much more difficult. She doesn't stay in it! And when we lay down with her, she wiggles for 30-40 minutes before settling down. It's a bit frustrating on us parents. So I think for her birthday, or soon after, we will get her a twin size bed. I mean, it's really crowded in the middle of the night with Alli, Natalie, and mommy all on one twin bed!! :) (Yes, the bed is really for mommy!!)
Ok, so I figured Natalie is two. She wants to do everything her big sister does. So I decided we should start potty training. Well, she is stubborn just like Alli, but in different ways. She figured things out pretty quickly the first day I had her run around bottomless. She peed once. I wisked her to the toilet. She graciously then went every 30 minutes just like I wanted, but never once did a drop leave her. Until nap time. I put a diaper on her. Holy cow was it full - I had to change it before she even fell asleep! And the stinker just kept doing that. So no accidents while naked, but no success on the toilet either. Grrr.... I went out and bought some underwear and training pants. We'll see if those will help, although it's going to take a little time before I have another good weekend to devote to potty training, so we'll see if we can do it at mommy's convenience...
