potty training day one.

We got serious. big girl panties, the whole schnoogle. There is a potty board on the fridge, she gets to put a star sticker every time she pees in the potty. Once she fills it up (16 squares) then hubby is going to take her to go buy a fish tank. Then another 16 squares, and she gets a fish. :) I think it is a good idea, and seems to be working. What worked for us even more is stashing her diapers. They are not in the normal place, and she has a choice in the morning to go naked or wear big girl panties. She chose the panties. :)

So far today, I have set the timer on the stove for 40 minute intervals and she has made all but 3, one huge accident in hubbys side of the closet (giggle) and one semi accident int he front room and a slight slip at 20 minutes into her 40, but she made it to the potty. She is doing soo good and totally gets it. I think I am grounding us at home this week and next and then we will conquer the real world :)

    We're right there with you. Julie only wears a tshirt everyday at home and we have been accident free for a long time. I've started taking her to the potty at stores/eateries but that is a lot more difficult with two other kiddos and a growing belly.

    They'll get it, I just hope sooner rather than later. lol
