Potty training
So I think we are almost there! When we are at home Rory has been great in going to the potty and wearing "big girl" panties. She has had a couple of accidents when she has gotten involved in a movie or playing and forgotten. She definitely knows the difference between when she is wearing panties and a pullup. She'll tell me that she doesn't have to go sit on the potty because she has a pullup on. The big barrier for me has been when we go places and when she goes to school. I don't want to put panties on her because if she has an accident, then we have to have an extra set of clothes and just worrying about will we be somewhere where we can go potty. So, I have decided she knows how to do it, so I just need to put panties on her and go and just deal with the accidents. Yesterday morning we went to run errands. I kept asking her and of course her answer is no. (And too...pottying has to be her idea along with most things she does. Rarely when I ask her if she needs to potty does she say yes. Usually it's no and then a few minutes later she says, oh I need to peepee. ) She finally announced, "oh I need to peepee" but already had. We went to the bathroom anyway and sat on the potty. Oh well...keep trying. Then yesterday evening we went to Fry's with Sammy. It has been a while since we had even discussed pottying, I forgot she had panties on. So I had to potty and she went to "help" me. Then she took a turn...with a little resistence..but she peed! She kept saying she didn't have to, but as soon as she sat on the potty she peed. And was so proud of herself!! She has been in panties all day today and no accidents. She is a pro at pooping the potty. And nap time her pullup has been dry when she wakes up. So, I think we are pretty much trained....we have the rest of the weekend and all of next week at home with me and Sammy to finalize it before we try panties at school.
