Trip to the Library

After many years of spending tons of money on books at Borders and Barnes and Noble, I rediscovered the library about a year ago.  I hate to say that I hadn't been to one since college but its the truth!  Even though I may not be able to get the exact book that I want at that moment, I always leave with at least 3 books and feel so great because they were FREE:)  And if I do keep them a little beyond the deadline the fee is nominal.  So, a couple of days ago I went to the library on a mission.  That mission was to get as many books on potty training as I possibly could.  And that I did.  I got books for Bailey like "Tinkle, Tinkle, Little Tot" and books to help me learn all the various methods, my personal favorite being, "Potty Training Sucks".  The following is an excerpt from "Tinkle, Tinkle, Little Tot":

Itsy-Bitsy Poo-Poo (nope Im not kidding)
(sing to the tune of "Itsy-Bitsy Spider")

An itsy-bitsy poo-poo
Was floating in the bowl.
I wiped my bum with paper 
And flushed it down the hole.
I washed my hands with soap,
Then I walked right out the door.
And I'll return again 
When I have to poop some more.

Yep, thats right, that was a song about poop.  And if you think thats bad you should see the video that I got for Bailey.  All of you that don't have kids yet, just wait:)........

Wish Bailey (and me) luck!!
