Laurie's Diary Entries

Diary Navigation:

August 6, 2001

Wow - it has been forever since we last posted. I apologize. I cannot believe that summer is flying by so quickly...Oh well...it always does.

Hannah is growing up so fast. She is starting to understand the word potty and where you go potty and also "holding" herself when she is pottying in her diaper so I figure it is time to start the potty training! Question: Does anyone have a suggestion on which potty training potty to buy? I didn't expect to go to the store and find ones that play music, could be used as a step stool etc. and I left very confused and without one. Does anyone have any recommendations or experiences of which potty chair to use?

We are also in the hitting stage. Mainly just to me. If I say no she hits. I have really struggled with this in some ways because I do not know how to discipline this. If I hit her on the hand, I am teaching her that it is okay to hit, time-outs are not really an option at this stage and saying "No" with some emphasis just aggrevates the the situation - Any suggestions on that too would be appreciated!

Well, I have to run, I just wanted to post those two questions real quick -

Take Care -

Laurie and Hannah (01/16/01)
