Wednesday:
The kids and I went to Target this morning, and then to the grocery stores, and I was glad I got out before 9:00, even though I was out past 11:00. Its so hot right now, I can't remember the last day it has been less than 100 degrees. This summer has been brutal, so I really try to do all my out-goings in the morning. I can't wait till fall when it's cooler and the kids and I can have more park days.
Anyway, I gave Annabelle a bottle while we were at Target and today, I brought the potty seat along with me to give it a try. I tried at Target, and she didn't go. I was surprised though that she didn't show any kind of meekness during her sitting and 'trying'. I put her dry diaper back on and then we went to the grocery stores. At Sunflower, I decided to try again. Her diaper was still dry, and I put her on, and she peed! Liam and I were both very proud of her! Liam also had to go, which I found out taking two kids potty in the middle of a shopping trip is easier said than done.
After I the kids went potty, and I got their hands washed and out of the bathroom, I put Annabelle in the front of the cart instead of the wrap, and I'm beginning to realize how heavy she is. I fell much lighter when I don't have her strapped to me. Not that I don't enjoy it. I love baby wearing and everything, but there is a certain feeling of liberation when you take your baby out and the wrap off after carrying your baby all day. I noticed tonight my feet hurt pretty bad too. Maybe I'll take up putting her in the front of the cart every now and then.
