yesterday

i took taylor to the dr to have them check out her eye. she's had a sty since sunday. i just wanted to make sure it wasn't infected. haha, and it's not. there went my $15 co-pay. haha. he just told me to put a warm compress on it. hehe. and it should go away within 7-10 days. here is taylor playing w/ the toys at the dr. after these not so nice 3 siblings got called into to their appt. (2 girls and 1 boy). they wouldn't share with taylor and moved all the toys by them. and she got soo hapy when she finally got to play with it. kids!


...i've been trying so potty train taylor i'd say for the past 4 or 5 months or so...since she's always with me when i use the potty. and she's always so curious about the potty. so we bought her an elmo potty seat to go on top of the toilet. for the few months she used it consistently at least once a day. sometimes poop, sometimes just pee. and she was good at times telling us "peepee" so she can use the elmo potty. but lately she didn't wanna use it. in the past she had constipation problems and we'd sit her on her potty and she'd cry, cry, cry cause it hurt so much. so we think she associated her elmo potty w/her constipation. and therefore, she didn't want to sit on it to go pee or poo cause it might hurt. but yesterday we were reading a book with what she thought looked like a potty (it really did-the way it was drawn) but it was a a sink. haha. and she kept saying "peepee." so i asked her if she wanted to go on elmo potty and she said yes. so we went, took off her diaper and peepee she went. her favorite part of going potty is: 1) getting to pull the toilet paper to go down the toilet, after she "wipes." and 2) watching the toilet get flushed. here's a CROPPED pick of her on the potty-gotta keep it g-rated. haha.
