Olivia is potty trained! Yippee!!! For the last couple of months if she wanted to go potty I would just let her but then put a diaper back on her and then starting last week we put undies on and she's been telling me when she needs to go since then and now she just goes. It's been awesome! She's basically done it all by herself. She's had one accident but that was her not being able to get her pants off fast enough. Even at church she went through nursery without any accidents! Nap time yesterday no accident! Big accomplishment there! We'll see how she does today though, it could have been a fluke! Okay so what do you think about infant potty training???
Personally I think it's a load of CRAP! Seriously... I'm thinking it's more like Mommy training rather than potty training! But that's just me! And I don't want to start a war... Just wondering what you all think! :) On another note Joe passed his big final test! Hip hip hooray!!! So now we know he's good to go just some more clinicals and 2 more classes after tomorrow. Then we're off to the big national test. You get up to 6 hours to take it and it's VERY strict. They finger print you coming and going even if you just have to got to the restroom. You can't wear hats, no backpacks or electronic devices like phones, pocket PCs or calculators. If you're lucky and have studied BIG TIME and know your stuff you can finish and be done in as little as an hour with only 75 questions, however if you're a slacker or just not with it that day it can take up to 250 questions and 6 hours! We're hoping for the previous scenario! So good job JOE on passing your test! :)

Congrats Joe! You guys need to move to Boise now.
Way to go Joe! Good luck on the next one!
Hooray for Olivia too! I think I'm gonna have P. go cold turkey as soon as school's out.
Baby training - what a pain in the rear. I cannot imagine what a hassle that would be!
Congrats and good luck with the next test!
Baby potty training ... is mommy training for sure and I think it is craziness! :) Like who with more than one would have the time for that?!
Oh, my heck! Great things are happening at your house. Congrats on both.
I think you are right on the potty training babies thing. Give me a break!
Big milestones this week! WTG On the NO MORE DIAPERS!!! Cannot WAIT for that day! WTG on the test Joe!
Where are ya'll gonna move?
And infant PT-- ridiculous!
Exciting news at your house!! Way to GO!! What a milestone to have Olivia potty trained. I can only imagine how excited you are!!
I don't understand that potty training infant stuff, I agree it seems like it is the mom that is trained. They can't even communicate that young. I would not want to deal with the mess.
Good luck to Joe, MOVE TO WA!
Mommy training forsure on the potty issue. I think any potty training before a child is ready is only training those around him/her to keep asking or taking the child to the bathroom. I believe when they are ready they will do it and then the bonus is no accidents or very few (they are learning and I am sure if I were just learning, with how bad I have had to go and hold it, I would have had my share of accidents. So no more diapers at your house? WOOOOHOOOOOOOOO and maybe a new job with money, WOOOOOOOHOOOOOOOOO you wont know what to do with all that money. hehe
Oh and I love your new blog design. K
Way to go Joe! Good job for Olivia!
I can't wait until Tiffany is all potty trained. With Tiago I think we started it to soon, so now I'm waiting until she is really ready! I totally agree with you on the baby potty training thing, that's what diapers are for!!!!
baby training is total B.S.! seriously. total crap. mommy training for sure, and i am not motivated enough to train myself much less my almost 4 year old. she'll get it when she wants to. she knows how, and yet wants to be the baby still, and i think why fight it? i'm not.
WAY TO GO OLIVIA! that is FABULOUS!
WHOOHOO for JOE! way to go on that test! WHOOHOOOOOOOOO! and good luck on the next one.
Baby training- total crap and i don't agree with it, think it is more mommy training.. Good job Joe
Yay for Joe!!!
Yay for Olivia!!!
And whatever for the infant potty traiing. I do NOT see how that can happen.
That so nice!!! I wish Liv would start thinking like that. She just goes in her diaper and then says I need to go potty! Seriously in China the babies have pants with holes in them and they go out hte hole in their pants. They star very young like 4 months old no dipers,they sing a song everytime they go the bathroom. SO the baby gets used to the song and goes on demand. Ive seen pictures.
Congrats to Joe... and I agree... it's a TOTAL load of crap... no pun intended.
I'm not buying into the whole infant potty training thing either... I think it totally depends on the baby who is being trained.
I totally agree. Potty training a baby is no more than training the mom to take the baby to the potty instead of in a diaper. The baby has no ability to do it on its own at that stage. It's certainly not easier, its way harder! I love diapers for this reason, can you even imagine that sillyness with twins! YIKES! Congrats on finishing the potty training phase again, its quite a milestone!
mommy's patience training, yup!
Congrats to Joe. I'm with you about the infant potty "training". Mommy training for sure!
Tha pic is too cute! But yeah, total *crap* on baby training.
And congratulations to Olivia and Joe!
Congrats to Olivia and Joe!! WOO-HOO!!
Baby Training...ha!
I hope Ginger is as easy to poddy train as Olivia was. That's cool. Oh, yeah, infant training..I don't believe it. It looks dumb to me.
Good luck to Joe!! Wow, what a stressful and exciting time!!
