Potty Training... Again??

Maddie has been so interested in the potty since Emma is potty trained and lately she has been wanting to sit on it, too.

Which I thought was cute and adorable.

And then one day she went #1 when the bath water was running. That has happened several times.

Then I noticed her trying to go #2 and put her on there. She went no problem. And we celebrated.

Now whenever I put her on the potty she can go. She seems to have an easier time going #2 in the potty than in her diaper.

So do I potty train my 15 MONTH OLD?! I seriously never thought about possibly potty training 2 kids in just 1 year... and definitely never thought I would be considering potty training one of my kids so young. But she seems like she already gets it.

And what is the worse that can happen?

Pros: She goes through less diapers? She gets a head start on potty training? I only have 1 kid in diapers when the baby is born?

Cons: I stress over potty training through the last 10 weeks of my pregnancy and summer? She regresses when the baby is born and we have to start over?

What would YOU do?

It's kind of a big deal.

I'm a wishy-washy potty trainer. I understand the benefits of going cold turkey, but my sanity and my family couldn't have handled that. So we have eased into it. But after only a couple of months, Emma is really close. She still has moments and even days where we both get frustrated, but she is pretty good at staying dry and telling me she needs to go. Last Sunday she stayed dry for all of church!

But our roadblock has been #2. Honestly, she has never gone #2 in the toilet. She knows eventually my wishy-washiness will result in a diaper and she'll be able to relieve herself. But tonight she did it!! And you would have thought we won the lottery at our house. We cheered and danced and partied it up, because you know what? I'm a mom and I love celebrating those little successes.
