It's potty time, potty people!

WARNING: most surely contains more information than you want to hear.

It's time for potty training and it's going GREAT! I read up on a few different techniques. Although, I really didn't think Grey was ready... I thought I'd totally go for it and then I could say, "See?! She really isn't ready." I chose to do the 3 day potty training. I heard that it works. (Which really isn't 3 days...they just mean 3 days for the child to go on his/her own.) She was doing great within hours!! 

After 3 pees on the floor, (I think she just needed to get used to "going" without a diaper...) I went to change Silas and when I came back, I smelled something worse than a wee... I was terrified that Grey pooed on the floor, a shoe, or most dreaded the shag carpet!!  I walked in to see her sitting on her potty making a #2! After that, she had 100% accuracy in the potty. Poops and pees!

We even braved the store without diapers on the second day. (Without diapers means no panties, pull-ups or anything. Just pants.)

Now she is doing the same, the longest I've gone outside of the house is 2 hours. I'm scared to risk any longer! She does great at home, but the catch is she does not tell me when she has to go, she just goes...so if she's in public, she'll just pee her pants. (maybe it feels like a diaper?!) Or at least that's what I'm afraid of.

The rest of the week we are going to try pants on (no diaper, panties or pull-ups) and see how that goes. She'll learn quick to tell me (I hope!) as wet cold pants are not fun. And they do NOT equal a treat! Jude got M&M's so we are letting her have those too. Although, I keep getting new fruits and tell her that she can try them instead of "chocos" ...she will take kiwi over chocolate. YES! But most of the time she plays, stops to go, and then just carries on and I don't even notice till I actually happen to see a #1 in the potty. I'm super proud!

 Alright, that is not her normal treat, and this is actually a few weeks old...she was sick. That is when I am actually a sucker for treats... But I had to add it because this picture is hilarious! Jude took it. Shirt: Aunt Chollet.
