Potty Training!!!!!

We set last weekend aside to have an intense potty training weekend.
And I am proud to say...THEY DID IT!!!!!!
Here they are practicing on their potties the night before the big day!

Grace seemed to take the easy approach much of the time...just no clothes at all. Easy access to the potty. And don't worry, they can still wear their fancy princess dresses and go potty!our first outing with big girl pants on!!! we took a walk to get dinner...Greg and I were going crazy staying inside!
So to say this was an easy task, would be a lie. We started this process last Friday morning. We have been taking about it for WEEKS, preparing the girls, talking, talking, and talking about big girl pants and NO more diapers!!!! They were ready, I was ready, (and Greg was at work all day and had to be out that evening! But I was determined!!!!!) It started quite rough, so rough, that by nap time I was DONE. They were NOT ready, BAD idea, I obviously needed to read up on how to potty train...I was looking up every book there was out there.

But the girls must have had sweet potty dreams. They woke up and they were ready to go!!! And they have gone and gone since. The "pee-pee dance" has been danced and sung over and over here, lots of special treats have been given, and we have had only a FEW accidents! I am so proud. The pooping...well that has always been an issue here, but we are working on that. They ask for pull ups, poop, and we are good to go again.

As great as it is, I must admit, I was a little sad to see them in their big girl pants, because...they did all of a sudden look like even BIGGER girls!!
