DARWIN is on his 12th year of teaching, currently at Springville High School teaching astronomy, geology, environmental science, and physics. He also teaches physics at UVU for a 7 week STEM summer school program for junior high students. He also teaches teenagers in our church ward. He's super busy, but still makes time to be an awesome dad and husband.
June 3rd was the BIG day for us.
NO MORE DIAPERS!!
NO MORE DIAPERS!!
Aurora seemed pretty ready to potty train back in January right around her birthday, but several people had told me to wait with potty training until after Savannah was born because a lot of kids regress when such big changes come in their little lives. So, we waited. However, I didn't want to be buying diapers for two kids for very long, so we set a date and stuck with it. We planned to do it after Darwin was done teaching so we'd both be here to help and support each other and Aurora. It was a good plan. I'm glad we could do it together.
She went straight from diapers all the time to no diapers at all. No pull-ups or anything. Not even for nap time or bed time.
The morning of June 3rd, Aurora wore her last diaper, ever!
Our big girl wearing panties!
On her way to throw away her diaper - it was in the front red "pocket" of her car
Bye-bye diapers!
Rori wanted Vannah to wear panties too :)
What a cutie!
Sister hugs are the best!
We had lots of "hanging out" time over the next couple of days
Playing on Daddy's iPad
Enjoying her ring pop (she thought it was a candy binky) she got for waking up dry after the first night - we're so proud of her!
After a couple of days and we felt she got the hang of things and thought we were ready to leave the house, but then she got a fever for two days :( So we were home-bound pretty much the entire week
The first day she had lots of accidents--like every 45 minutes, but she eventually figured things out. She wakes up dry from almost all of her naps and night time, with only a couple accidents, but overall she has done amazing and it has been a pretty good experience. She's had a rough time with #2, but we'll get there eventually!
Great job, Aurora! We are SO PROUD of you for doing such a difficult thing and doing so well with it! You're not even 2 1/2 yet! You're awesome, babe!
