Potty Training Follow-Up

After my initial post on potty training, L ended up wearing a diaper for a day or two and didn't mind at all. Of course when we were at church, she asked to use the potty twice, but didn't go either time. I think she just wanted to put toilet paper in the toilet and flush it.

With M being out of town for a few days for his hunt, I decided this was going to be a diaper free week. L went diaper free for a few hours on Sunday and was diaper free all day today. Although I cleaned up several messes, she told me every time she went and a few times before she went, but she didn't always sit on the potty long enough to actually make it in the potty. Two of the misses were in the bathroom so she was at least able to finish her business on her potty.

We were able to do the "dance" two times and when I told her it was time for bed, she headed straight for the bathroom and sat on the potty. Although she didn't go because she had just gone 20 minutes prior, she now associates going potty before bed as part of her bed time routine.
The last time she went to the bathroom, she took a doll with her and let the doll sit on the big potty while she sat on her little one. It was too cute!
