Let’s Talk Bums { Cottonelle wipes & dispenser}

We just finished potty training Tess. She was ready. We were ready. That was good!
It’s crazy to think this might be the last little person we potty train.
Boo.

We are pretty casual potty trainers. But I have friends who have been successful with the 3 day boot camp style, or by transitioning to cloth diapers first. However you decide to take care of the dirty business, one thing is the same – eventually you have to teach your little ones to wipe.
To me, this is way worse than potty training.
How much toilet paper do you use?
What’s a skid mark?
How do you know when you are done wiping?
Front to back. Always?
Always.
We opted for the flushable wet wipe option to get those sweet bums clean. I just found this one with an upright dispenser for Tess. I like it because the dispenser keeps the wipes wet even if little people leave the top open. (This was a problem for us with our earlier potty trainers.) We tell our littles to use one when they think they are done to get off any extras… ahem… and wouldn’t you know it? Skid marks are a thing of the past! Buuuut be sure your kids are ONLY using one per flush… the Cottonelle wipes are safe to flush (and for septic too) but lets not get cray.
And the Cottonelle dispenser doesn’t look obnoxious on your bathroom counter. See…

And yes, that is an In-N-Out Burger cookie jar on my bathroom counter.
And no, this shot wasn’t staged.
Our whole guest bathroom is an In-N-Out theme… and it’s fantastic!
I keep womanly things things in there for guests.

I even pop the dispenser in the car for any side-of-the-road potty stops.

    I feel like it has been way too long since I’ve seen your cute family! 🙂 How fun is that pop up dispenser!? My youngest probably needs to have that.
