Lauren and Libby

San Francisco

This trip to SF to visit Uncle Brad and Merm was the start of a wonderful transition in our lives. Lauren was so excited to show Uncle Brad and Merm how she could pee-pee in the potty that she started her potty training at Uncle Brad's apartment. Merm would give Lauren a gummie bear whenever she went potty and it worked like a charm, except for one mishap on Uncle Brad's carpet. A small price to pay for such a big milestone. When we got home from SF Lauren told Mommy that she wanted to wear big girl underwear and never looked back. Lauren pretty much trained herself.
