My 1 ½ year old held the longest potty strike, but is now willing to use the potty on a regular basis while she is awake. Although she generally has a wet or messy diaper after naps and waking in the morning, while awake she has been initiating using the toilet consistently for the past […]

Blog Action Day- Decrapifying your life to be greener.
