Potty Training.......

My little bug

So.....We have given the whole potty training thing another shot!! Difference from the first time is that its REALLY working!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! She is actually getting it. A wise friend of mine helped me realize the first time around that since she was still nursing it was next to impossible to get her to do it, and boy was she right!

I thought i was going to my parents this last weekend for a nice relaxing visit(which it was for the most part) when my mom came back from walmart with not just big girl panties, but MINNIE MOUSE panties!!!!!! And since our little princess is obsessed(a complete understatement) with mickey mouse and his friends you can imagine how ecstatic she was. Me: *HUGH SIGH* Not exactly what i had in mind.

So..... of course my mom had to put them on her and then had to put her on the potty. It had begun, there was no turning back.

Now don't get me wrong i want her trained trust me, but i had been planning to start as soon as our life settles down. Well my mother dear had it in her mind to start now!

First day, which i believe was monday since the few times she wore the panties during the weekend were complete failures, she went once.

Second day, tuesday. She went once before leaving to come home( a 2hr. drive) then two more times before bed. There was one accident in there somewhere. For day two i think she did pretty good!

Day three, Wednesday. Yesterday was when we actually realized she was starting to get it. She had a few accidents but she went FIVE times on the potty, yes FIVE!!!! Before bedtime she even went in the bathroom all by herself and tried to get on the potty. A leg ended up getting stuck in the process but she tried, right?! We helped down and thought for sure she was just playing but put her on the potty anyway. Sure enough she went right away!!!!!! She actually knew what to do...my baby did it on her own;)

So here we are on day four, thursday. She went as soon as she got up this morning IN the potty and her diaper was much lighter than it usually is in the morning. Its still early but no accidents yet! Actually she is on the potty as we speak;) We still haven't had a #2 yet but my mom says its normal so we will see.

I will keep you all posted as to how the next few days go!
