Isabel went Potty!

Agnes is jumping up and down at home and I am telling everyone at work. I know we are very strange, but it's a big milestone.

Agnes started Isabel with potty training last week. Items required
- Steam vacuum cleaner to easily remove stains (we will be returning it after we are done. It's $300)
- a Baby bjorn potty (we have a green one)
- many pairs of pants for Isabel
- lots of patience

Agnes started having Isabel walk around with no diaper on during the day and take her to the potty to sit with her pants down. At first, she didn't want to, but started doing it last week. Every day last week she would get up after awhile and then she would pee while she is walking or running. She has also pooped in her pants (thus the many pairs of pants)

Well, I just got a text at work today that Isabel just peed in the potty for the first time! yeepy. She was a little shocked afterwards but it's a good sign and a good start. I can just see Agnes jumping up and down at home.  Reminds me of the time we were celebrating together when Isabel finally pooped and while we were changing her after 10 days of constipation as a baby.  I know we are strange but you had to be there.   

I just want to share with all of you the good news! heehee  Thank goodness for Agnes and all her patience.  Next milestone is pooping in the potty!  Aren't you so happy you are reading this post! :-)
