  • Rylie's Rambling and Ryder Going Potty

    While I was making lunch today, I heard Rylie calling Youkeun from the bathroom. (She now goes pee, wipes, and washes her hand all by herself! hooray!)

    R: Dad! Come to the bathroom. I see something funny!
    Y: What is it?...
    R: There's hair in my booty!!!!

    At this point, I was cracking up in the kitchen. I was trying to imagine what she was talking about. She then called me into the bathroom and I took a peek. Lo and behold, I see a strand of hair hanging from her booty. While she was going pee, I guess she decided to peek in the toilet and saw hair hanging. She was genuinely relieved when I was able to remove it from her booty... lol.

    While on the topic of potty, I can now say Ryder goes #2 (sometimes #1) in the potty! He starts grunting and gives me a look and I'll know that he has to go. If I don't react fast enough, he can even hold it for a little and will keep grunting until I take notice. I only started because he was so regular. Once in the morning and once in the evening, usually after his meals. Even Rylie knows when he has to go! His regular bowel movements made it incredibly easy. We started putting him on the day after we purchased the potty and he had no problems going. If he doesn't have to go, he starts complaining while arching his back. Rylie also started going #2 at 10 months in the little potty and I didn't move her to the big potty till much later. It took her some time to get used to it and I'm sure fear had something to do with it. With Ryder, I put him on the little potty and big potty, so he can get used to both. He looks so teeny when on the big potty, but he doesn't mind at all. It's the cutest thing when he's all done, but will still push (while grunting) just to be funny. His humor is so much like his dad's. I'm pretty sure we have a mini Youkeun on our hands.
