As the mother of twin 2 year old girls, my life is now nearly totally consumed by potty training. I am really starting to wonder if I should take up residence in the bathroom. As I finally got to shower at 2pm this afternoon, I was thinking about the things people never tell you about having toddlers. So I've decided to compile a list of a few that have taken me by surprise.
~Even though my kids are toddlers, a successful day may include feeding everyone AND getting a shower.
~I may get covered in poo
~I never thought I could be so proud of someone going potty in the potty chair
~I know the inside and out of the Disney Junior lineup
~I will get covered in poo
~Just because one twin is ready to potty train, doesn't mean the other one is interested
~Potty training with a pregnancy gag reflex is not smart
~I am not the only thing that will get covered in poo
~Children are amazing to watch
~They learn things even when I don't realize I am teaching them
~I didn't realize how many questions I could get in one day
I have also realized that I don't mind these things as much as I thought, because along with the "drop everything" bathroom runs and being a human jungle gym, I get to watch my beautiful girls grow, learn, and love. I have this precious chance to admire how amazing God truly is!

Wow, I need to get better at this!
Ok, so I haven't posted for about 3 months. I'll try to get better. Of course a lot has happened since my last post. I went to MO and brought my husband home, the girls have had a birthday, and we are now expecting our third. It has been so nice to have my hubby home, he even started the potty training process on his own this weekend, with some success! We now need to start the process of cleaning out the unneeded things to make room for the "new kid" and all the stuff that accompanies a new baby. I hope to post again soon!
