Round 2 (literally #2)

WARNING!
(reader discretion is advised) 

Carley vs The Diaper

So Carley has been very interested in using the potty lately.
 Hooray!
 Yesterday she even wore big girl undies most of the day successfully! She loves that she can pull them down more easily than a diaper to MOON us and say "booty." Something very useful that big sis taught her. Great right!
This morning she woke up and said she had to potty.
 "Well great!" is what I am thinking. "This is going to be so much easier than with Danielle."

 So she uses the potty and I again put her in some of Danielle's big girl undies.
 Danielle doesn't really understand this. She still considers Carley to be a baby. And I use that word to refer to her at lot still. "Danielle you have to be careful with Carely." "She's still a baby"  echoes through the halls in this house every hour or so.

Anyways back to BUSINESS. ha ha

Carley was nicely playing in the kitchen until I saw her stop and get that stare. Any parent out there knows "the look" So I asked her if she had to go and she of course said no.

Next thing I know she is sprinting through the living room with little turdlets dropping out of her underwear!
Of course I scream for her to stop right there and she of course she runs back through all of it!

So long story short I cleaned up the trail and put her in a diaper.
 Next thing I know I am walking through the living room and almost slip on the carpet!
 THE CARPET!

 Instantly I know that I must have missed one. So GROSS! I can not even tell you what it feels like to limp to the bathroom to scrape kiddo poo off of your foot and then find some way to clean the rest of the mushed doo out of the carpet.

What a wonderful way to start my day.

I learned 2 things today.

#1- Get Carley some properly fitting underwear. No more of Danielle's undies. If they had fit, this whole situation would have been contained.

#2- Potty training will never be easy. At least not in this house

Too funny! There's always those potty stories for each kid--and you are right, it's never easy :)
