Potty Seat Rotation

Back when Julia was potty training, we got her a little potty seat with ducks on it.  She loved it.  Naturally, we took it with us on vacation, and on one of those trips we left it at Grammie and Opa's house (Shannon's parents).  As adults, we figured this wasn't a big deal.  They didn't have one (my parents already did, as they have 5 older grandkids than Julia), and they cost all of about 7 bucks.  We bought a new one (Sesame Street themed) and figured we were good.  But the new one was never quite the same for Julia.  She used it, but still talked often of the Duckie Seat.  Well, a few weeks ago Grammie finally mailed back the Duckie Seat.  (Turns out they'll do just about whatever Julia wants.  If Julia ever fully figures this out, they'll be in big trouble!)

When the Duckie Seat arrived in the mail, you should have seen Julia's face.  I wish we had a camera there to capture what is probably the happiest moment of her life.  I really can't over state the joy on her face when we opened that box.  So now we have two potty seats at our house.  You'd think that once reunited with her long lost Duckie Seat, she'd never use the Sesame Street one again, but you'd be wrong.  Instead, we have a rotation.  Duckie Seat in the morning, Sesame Street in the night time.  She won't go potty with the wrong potty seat on there.

We may have the same duckie seat. Chase quacks when he uses it (which has been all of about 3 times).
