We started potty training on Sunday, February 28th. It was totally spur of the moment. I had just totally had it with changing her diapers. She would fight them and have such a temper tantrum, and often both of us would end up crying. I finally got the hint that maybe she was ready. It didn't even take a full week, and my little pumpkin was trained, accident free. I was pretty much in disbelief, and still am a little, here a month later. But she has done great and I am SO proud of her! Because I know some of you will ask, and because I want to remember too, she was 2 years and 4 months old. I am NOT a fan of rushing or pushing things with her. I believe children show us when they are ready. I guess I was right - man, does that feel good to say, especially when it involves parenting! (I sure hope I'm right about these 2-year old tantrums!)
For the record, that first night there were 2 accidents. The next day there were 4. From then on out, only one tee-tee accident a day and only one poop a day. By the end of the week there were none of either. Wow! This girl NEVER ceases to amaze me!
Yay Addie Kate! So Erica, give me advice on taking the paci. Didn't AK have one? We have got to get Eli's from him. I am also hoping to transition to his big bed this summer - any thoughts on that one?
