Xanga iPhone app! My baby girl turned 3 this past Friday. Tomorrow we go to a new pediatrician for her 3 year check up. Excited to see how tall she is! Hubby went back to work yesterday after 6 weeks out with a broken arm and subsequent surgery. Looking forward to getting to know our 'new' town even though we've been here 2 months already.

So afraid I missed the window of opportunity.  Lydia will be 3 in 3 days.

I planned to begin potty training around 18 months, but then Fred got very sick and I had to wait on him for many weeks.  It got put on the back burner.

I planned to work on it - was even scheduled to go to a "potty training workshop" in April 2011 when we got the call that Fred's mom was in a coma in NYC.  We rushed up there and were there for 3 weeks.

We had some problems and for unforeseen circumstances Lydia and I were not home for a portion of the summer.

Then the move came.  Got here, was barely settled in - 2 weeks and Fred breaks his arm, and subsequent surgery.  Here we are almost 3 years old and not nearly potty trained. 

For a BM she will come running to me and tell me she has to go, we will run to the potty and sit there for 20 minutes with no outcome.  Diaper goes back on and we go back to whatever we were doing.  A little while later we repeat.  After another 20 minutes or so of nothing, diaper goes back on.  Then she runs into her bedroom and goes in her diaper!

This is an almost DAILY occurrence.  Last week we had a successful BM on the potty, but she drank a lot of juice that day, so it was a fluke. 

Is there any hope? 

I can't just "camp out at home" right now because Fred has PT weekly and Drs appointments regularly.  He can't drive so I have to do all the errands, and he can't get her on and off the potty and stuff with only one good arm.  Any suggestions?

Next Friday Lydia will be THREE!  My parents are coming on Thursday. 

My parents got her this but it still too short! 

I need to hit a bicycle shop and find pedal extenders.  She sees it and squeals "BICYCLE" and sits on it, but can't go anywhere.  LOL

It'll just be family again this year, since we've only been here 6 weeks (and 4 of them have been spent in Hospitals/doctors offices) we don't know anyone yet.

We were going to a church, but the pastor and his family announced that they were leaving and moving to West Virginia.  There is a new pastor coming on January 22nd to take over.

South Florida is a whole different animal.  It was 81 on Christmas.  I don't know that I'll ever adjust to it!  Lydia has so many corduroy dresses that she'll never get to wear.  LOL
