Day 1 April 23 We are insane. Selah has been ready to potty train for quite some time now. We delayed because it was simply too cold to let her run around in her skim-pees. Over the past week, Selah has taken off her diaper and begged to go on the potty. Since Hubs is [Continue reading The Potty Training That Wasn’t]
