Yesterday was the first time i see leen getting up on the potty all by herself.
It was so great. She takes her pants and unders off and pulls herself up on the potty.
She also tries to wash herself...but i always do it again incase she didnt do it too well.
She also take tissues to dry herself..but its always a very small piece and hence doesnt dry herself enough.
Still its so much fun to feel like to she trying to be independant AND actually succeeding.
This is our new milestone. I can now safely tell her to go herself and when shes done to call me.
More fun for her more relaxation for me....YAAAAAY!
YOU GOOO GIRLLL. I LOOOVE YOU

Not yet pampers free
We've been training Leen to live pampers free at home. She is already being trained in her nursery but now im doing it at home too. And boy is it hectic!!
She's been going well with the stool in the toilet but the pee is just not working that well with her.
Anyway last saturday was the worst day. She literally peed every 15 minutes! And she says i want potty and before she moves she just pees right where she is standing. Its disgusting and alot of cleaning to do.
Ofcourse i have already covered my sofa and her fav arm chair in plastic bags.. not to mention her bed for afternoon naps without pampers. I have also rolled up the carpet in the area where she sits and placed a mat instead so she wouldnt have to sit on the cold porcelein floor.
However this last saturday was too much to handle. I screamed at her.. i even gave her a smack on the foot. I put her in her naughty spot. She more or less spent most of the day in that naughty spot.
By the end of the day i just felt there was somethign wrong!!! She is either doing this on purpose or has a bladder infection that is not allowing her to pee right or hold it in for enough time to go to the toilet.
I went to the doc the next day and he told me that if there is no fever, or pain while urination then she is probably bored or tired or just annoyed with you!
He recommended that i dont scream at her and that saying im upset and putting her in the naughty spot should be enough.
I guess i'll have to give it another shot... so i hope she get better in time coz i'm already beat!

Eid and Beyond
We went to Ein sokhna in Eid this last week. It was fun since a big part of the family was there.
Leen enjoyed alot since there were lots of kids who were eager to play with her and gifts to exchange.
She also went swimming in the sea for the first time with her daddy. According to him and his bros who were with her in the water, she was extremely hyper and happy... splashing away with every part of her body. She had some arm 3awammat and had fun.
When she woke up the next morning and saw her dad she started telling him "3ayza mayya". She calls the sea mayya (ie water).
Anyway we are back home now and yesterday, im glad to report that she used the potty correctly TWICE in one day! Thats just great news to us!!
Thats all for now!

Potty Success
Lololololololeeeeeeeeeeeeeeey!
This is a day to remember. Today is the first day that leen REALLY scores into the potty.
For the last week or more she used to say potty right after she poops in her pampers. This ofcourse was a success of some kind.. at least everything wont be gooey and icky!
At first we were happy she says potty but then the problem wasn't completely solved yet. So we started to tell her she is naughty even when she says potty but does in the pampers. And we used to put her in the naughty spot.
Ofcourse evey half an hour i remind her that kiko in potty bas and kiko in pampers kekh and naughty.
Anyway today she said 3ayza potty. so i took her and asked her 3amaty kiko fel pampers she said no. And sure enough i took the pampers off and they were clean. I was surprised. So i put her on the potty and gave her something to play with.
After a while.... there she was pooping in the toilet! and danced and clapped and hugged and kissed and did everything i can to convey my happiness to her and how proud i was of her.
She was adorable. I hope this isnt just a fluke and the next time she gets it right too!!! AMEN!

Potty training ONE day disaster
Well it wasnt that bad..... we just had three Weewee accidents and one Kiko accident. (i felt like i had a dog and was cleanign after him)
And even though everytime i explained that when you want to go you have to sit on the potty, She nods and next thing she is peeing on the ground. Seems to me that she didint have any idea that when she gets this feeling of going something comes out. She just is relieved in some way when something happens. Coz she had the weirdest shocked look on her face when some pee runs down her leg or somethign ELSE falls out of her a$$! :)
The most positive thing she did was do it and then say "Potty"!
Anyway the whole training went down the drain coz i had to go to my parents house on saturday since her dad was travelling... and the 3rd day which was going to be a sunday and thats when her dad was going to handle her is off the list since he wont be here!
Now im not sure what to do? Should i try again next weekend? or wait for another month and try again!! I am honestly not sure. Maybe i will give it a shot next weekend even though its going to be a hectic one since it will be the first weekend in Ramadan!
Oh well lets just wait and see... maybe she will develop more smarts next weekend...Who Knows!

Potty Training Weekend
Today is Leen's first Julie Fellom 3 day potty training.
I have removed the carpets from the ground and places a small washable mat so the floor wont be cold on her now bare bottom.
I have placed the potty in the corner of the room facing the TV so she can sit on it when she wants to. I have placed her toy basket beside the rug in the middle of the room.
i have placed her seat cover on our rocking chair since she likes to sit on it alot.
i explained that when she wants to go weewee or kiko she will go sit on her new red potty.
First thing she did was go sit on it and pull her toys close to her. Now she got up and resumed her activities. I hope she understands and we have no accident today... even though its unlikely!! :) we will see!
bye for now!
