Potty Training :

Why the sad face?  My pretty fluff has to go, that's why the sad face.  Well almost has to go.  So, this is mostly about how potty training is going with twins.  I'd imagine it being different with one child.  First, I looked for signs of potty training readiness.  One of my twins seems really into it, the other, not so much.  I bought a small potty for on the floor and a potty seat that sits on the toilet.  My little guy seems to like the potty on the floor, but he prefers to stand up and his aim is not quite all there (thanks hubby for showing them how to use the potty...not!).  I bought cloth trainers to have on hand. They are like underwear only with an extra layer in the wetzone so its not a total soak, but pretty much they feel wet right away.  After doing cloth diapers, reusable trainers seemed like the logical choice to me.  I'm hoping that because they are CD'd that they will train faster...well almost hope ;)  

Again, little guy will go if I ask him, big guy just smiles and pees right through the trainer.  I feel this might be a train one and then wait for the other one to be ready.  I don't want to push this and it's not like I have to buy diapers :)  Right now I'm just going with the flo, but around June I think I will attempt the 3 day method.  Lots of naked time and staying home all three days.  Any advice you can offer me readers?  Training two boys at once has me freaked out!

2014 Great Cloth Diaper Change

This past Saturday April 26th, was the Great Cloth Diaper Change.  It was held all over the world in over 300 locations. I helped with the Roseville, CA location hosted by Dearest Diapers and it was a huge success.  The event is aimed at building awareness about cloth diapering and shedding some light on the wonderful world of cloth.  At 11am in each time zone parents changed their babies in 100% reusable diapers to set a world record.  Hope we broke the record again this year.  We had over 60 mamas and daddies participate at our location and over 100 people attended.  It was so much fun and it was great to meet some many parents who were similar to my parenting style.  There was of course lots of babywearing going on :)  I even got to do a TV interview the morning of.  I was so scared, but it turned out pretty good and all the babies on stage looked adorable.  It made me a little sad since my boys are getting closer and closer to potty training.  I'm gonna miss their fluffy bums :(

That being said, my next post will be diving into potty training and seeing how cloth diapering will help with that. My guess is that it will since they can feel the wetness more in cloth.  Please pray, send good vibes while I try to tackle potty training two boys at once...YIKES!
