potty
Ally is still working on the potty thing. Sometimes she gets it and sometimes she doesn't. We're not really pushing, since it's still early. I switched her to Feel-and-Learn pullups diapers to help her learn (except at night. I don't want her to notice she's wet at night. I want her to sleep). I always sit her down in the morning when she gets up, and flip the tv on. She just sits there until I'm ready to get her ready. When she pees, sometimes she stands up and claps and says YAY. Sometimes she just goes on watching tv, and I don't even know she's gone until I stand her up.

Occasionally, if it's been a while since I changed her and she's still dry I'll ask her if she needs to go. She usually says potty and sits down pretty good for me. Or, I'll see her playing with her diaper. That usually means she's about to go.

Saturday night, I noticed she had been dry for a while, so I asked her to go potty for me, and she pooped!! I was so ... disgusted. (I bet you all expected me to say excited didn't you? well, maybe the ones who have done this before didn't because they've been there.) I can't wait until she decides to sit on the real toilet. Anyway, I am proud of her, and maybe there's an end to dirty diapers in sight.

Name: Jill

Sigh. Mom said we were all trained before we were two to use the potty. Lee and Kent had HORRIBLE times with their kids, some were almost 5 and ready for school before they consented to use the potty. That was awful. I think you have to get them before they can "decide" on their own what to do. Seriously, seeing that and what letting the kids decide to do rule the roost, I'd much rather think that the parents are making the decision and not the kid. They finally all made the kids wash their own underwear out, which to me is disgusting. I don't know, I think you're doing great with this, but I hope you dont have 3 more years of it. Man....
