And it begins again. . .

We're potty training today. We've done this once before, for a weekend back in June, but then we got lazy and started putting her in diapers, and that was that.

But now we're serious. There are four days before she goes to daycare on Tuesday, and I want her mostly trained by then. I want her completely trained, other than possibly at night, before I go back to work in less than three weeks. So it's back to big-girl "culottes", sparkly happy-face stickers for sitting on the potty, and lots and lots of juice and milk. I don't think I'll overdo it on that, though. She's been peepee on the potty before, so we're just going to go about our business and go to the bathroom every half hour or so.

Wish us luck!

It's my potty, and I'll cry if I want to!

You would cry, too, if it happened to you.

In all seriousness: good luck with the training.

Thanks. I'm sure you'll be taking notes. :)

Luck!
Nah, you won't need luck, she's a smart girl and will pick up on it again in no time :)

She hasn't had a major accident all morning, and she has had a major success.

I just put her in a diaper for her nap, though. There are some battles I'm not willing to fight.

Yeah, staying dry while sleeping is a whole different ballgame. Chances are good though that she'll wake up dry after her nap!

I'm not so sure. SHe had a big drink with her lunch, but she didn't pee after that. We'll see, anyway.
