Oh Crap! Potty Training

At the beginning of the month we decided to embark on the potty training journey.  Anora had been going pee in the potty periodically, but was getting to the point where she would only go if she wanted a treat!  She's too smart for our methods.  We decided to go a bit more hardcore and follow the book "Oh Crap! Potty Training" in order to get the job done.  She took to it right away!

You spend the first couple days totally naked around the house with the potty nearby.  She had zero accidents!  She definitely already knew how to hold her pee and was doing so for long periods of time at first.  Then we moved on to going commando.  She had a couple accidents when she was distracted - like at church - but after about two days, she was doing great.  The pooping in the potty is still an art form, but she is figuring out that she needs to stay on the potty longer and will even go and get her little leap pad computer and sit there for a bit so she can relax. 

I have been so proud and impressed at how quickly she has moved from going to the bathroom in her diaper, so going in the potty.  She is so quick to pick up on things, and so willing to try new things.  While we still have a diaper on her overnight, once we move her to a big girl bed, we will do away with it.  Most days she wakes up with a dry diaper.  What a smart cookie we have!
