We are getting close... VERY close... to potty training time!
Anna has always been infatuation with the potty.... she loves the potty song and loves watching others use it. If you remember right, I posted in a blog a couple months ago about how she has kissed the potty. Well... now she has words for it. When she is peeing she says "i pee" and when she goes poop she says "i poo poo." I can even tell by watching her when she is pooping or peeing. She also takes her own diaper off in an attempt to use the potty and has fun just sitting on it.
Just recently, I started the M and M bribe where she gets an m and m is she does one of the following things
1. Tells me when she goes pee (says I pee and the diaper is warm to touch) or poop.
2. When I ask her is she has poop and she says the correct answer- yes or no. It is too cute when she is sitting on the potty and I ask and she shakes her head and says no.... too cute.
3. Goes pee pee or poo poo on the potty.
The M and M bribe has been pretty successful throughout the last couple of days... today after swimming she even sat on the potty for almost 15 minutes (getting up and down and waling around just to go back to the potty) and successfully went pee on the potty! We got SO excited, clapped, shouted hooray, flushed it down the toilet (Anna got to flush for the first time) and celebrated with some M and M's. She was beaming with pride when she looked in the toilet and saw it!
We are just having fun with it right now and plan on trying after our July 4th trip. The M and M's are stocked and fingers will be crossed!
Much Love,
Jenny
And yes- she wanted to hold Lambie on the potty while wearing her accessories.... too much I tell you- too much!
