Enjoying a spot of telly

Erin enjoys tv whenever she gets a chance and preferably with a dvd box to hold onto while watching. There are benefits to being the second child. Owen was never allowed tv until he was older. Hopefully he won't hold this and all the other things I never let him do against me!

The start of potty training

Erin has been reading her potty book religiously and so I was not surprised when she decided she was entitled to be next in line on "The Throne". "No more nappies" she told me and promptly whipped her nappy off. It has not taken her long to have bladder control and to do a wee but pooping has taken a bit more work. Even though I had been through this with one child (which was significantly more painful), it has not stopped the same severity of wretching that overcomes me when a waft of poop fills my nostrils. There are hardly any accidents and asking her to go to the toilet is not met with much hesitation.
