So one week ago today I decided to give potty training a go.
Samantha seemed ready.
The question was- was I?
We went to Target and bought all the goods- Elmo potty seat, juice boxes, potty prizes, and underwear (lets talk about how I only purchased one bag with 7 pairs in it. 7 pairs people. In what world would I only need 7 pairs?!) It was apparent that after 14 accidents on day one (I know because we went through each pair twice! Luckily it was laundry day) that I would need more.
By day two we were down to 5 accidents.
By day 3, we were accident free and dry at nap time.
Now on day 7 we are doing great. Leaving the house even.
True to Samantha's nature, she adapted to change very quickly.
Now I just have to get her out of the habit of expecting chocolate chips every time she pees and a Popsicle every time she poops.
Oh yeah, and keep her from falling in. Watching her climb onto the toilet is like a gymnastics routine, and yes, she insists on doing it all by herself.
