Potty Training Secrets

Savannah is currently OBSESSED with Dora the Explorer. She especially loves Dora's monkey friend, Boots. Recently, I bought her Dora pull ups because she was complaining that her diapers were hurting her legs. She has kept them on a lot better than the diapers. AND a bonus is she can potty train at her own pace without me cleaning up my carpet every 30 minutes or so. With my crazy schedule due to classes, I decided I didn't have the time to devote to potty training. So the pull-ups allow Savannah to use the potty when she wants, without me having to commit fully to the potty training experience just yet. Today while at Target, Savannah and I ran across Dora panties. We bought them and brought them home. She immediately wanted to put them on and proudly showed them off to Daddy. Then for the next hour before bed she ran to the potty every 5 minutes because she was so worried she was going to pee on Dora. It was hilarious!

These panties may turn out to be my magic tool in potty train :)

Oh, the things we treasure! Today, Dora panties, tomorrow a new ipod! Yikes! Loved this cute story and it demonstrates the sweet, humbleness of a little child. Good luck on the potty training, Stephanie, it looks like she is on her way somewhat.

Elise had tinkerbell panties and I told her if she peed on them that Tinkerbell would fly away. lol Elise pretty much trained her self. I just waiting until she told me she wanted to pee in the potty like a big girl then I gave her some pointers she did it herself much easier.
