The final installment 

So it’s been about 7 weeks since we embarked on the potty training train and I’m happy to say, our little 20 month old man is potty trained. Yay!

The last 7 weeks have come with there challenges, firstly with an ear infection, a week and a half in, which resulted in us regressing back to nappies full time for a week or so.  The difficulty of dragging a toddler around to drop and fetch siblings and then the ‘I only know how to poop in standing’ challenge. 

The last 2 weeks Adam has been in underpants full-time and since Thursday has figured out how to poop in the toilet, which is so much better than the floor, ask my shoes!  The only nappy he wears is at night and the last 5 days it has been dry so when we get back from Jeffreys Bay we will probably be totally done with nappies.

It’s weird to think the nappy chapter in our lives is over, but at the same time I can’t say it’s something I’ll miss.

Now if only potty training my kids was as easy as getting my kids to sleep through the night (don’t stress Grace and Eli sleep through the night), I definitely would have thought I’m made to be a mother, but luckily parenthood is a humbling affair and kids know how to keep you in check!
