Potty Training

This picture was from August when she was first interested in the potty. I just think it is so cute & I have not caught a picture in action since we have been going at it more seriously.
The week of Christmas, we had a little luck with the potty. I was not really thinking she was ready, but she did go peepee & poopoo a few times during the week. She was proud of herself & got a m&m as reward! While we were in Nashville the week after, no such luck. We sould say peepee in potty or poopoo, we would run to the bathroom, but no results. One night, she said poopoo mommy. I said ok, we walked that way & she started playing with something. I figured it was another flase alarm... well, I felt terrible when she did have a dirty diaper 5 minutes later!
But, since we have been home, she has done well! We haven't had as much luck with #2. Yesterday, I put her down for a nap & a few minutes later she was crying for me. Then she called out poopoo... she had gone in the diaper. But, hey she is only 22 months (TODAY!!) & I am proud that we are on our way!
We went to the store & bought pull ups for outings. Diapers are limited to nap & bed time. My mom had given her some training panties, so we use those at home or bloomers or nothing!! She usually prefers to be naked on the bottom ~lol!! today, so far she had had 5 m's (as she calls them) all for #1.
The girl cheers for herself, likes to wipe & flush then after we wash hands we run to get a m&m!!
GO ELLIE!!!
