Success in Potty Training

I gotta tell ya', there is nothing like a bad tummy to get your 2.5 year old in the swing of pooping in the potty. We had only one true successful potty plop until yesterday when Lola managed to make it to the potty 9 - yes 9 - times with a rumbly tummy. She definitely has the hang of pooping in the potty now. Today the belly is better and she is still on the right track, but she doesn't seem to understand that a successful poop should actually be in the potty. Lola seems to think that if she is outdoors the potty goal is just to maintain a clean pair of underwear. The tricky part is praising her cleanliness but explaining that the grass or patio is not the best place to release the ol' bowels. Safety first, and the bottom line (no pun intended) is poop is just not safe.

Aside from life w/ kids, everything in Woobee land is great. The article in Parenting magazine has kept me very busy filling orders. I am also finally getting the hang of my new job at BabyLegs. It was difficult at first for me to focus on a business that wasn't my own. I have been promoting Woobee Kids for so long, thinking about new ways to promote BabyLegs was an interesting challenge. It was a new mind set that I needed to acquire. But, I love the product and I think I am definitely getting my groove on now.
