Payten's Potty Training Adventure

Well, we have had quite the adventure getting this little girl fully potty trained! But I can say, Praise God....she is finally there! In March we had her completly potty trained except for at night and then we went to Disney World and everything went downhill from there. We came back from the trip and all she wanted to wear was pull ups. We tried and tried to keep panties on her but she would pee and poop in them and then it would leave a huge mess for me to clean up. So instead of fighting the battle I decided to put her back into pull ups and let her decide when she was ready to wear big girl panties again. When we were in Oklahoma a couple weeks ago we hung out with Ady and Ashley for a night. She saw Ady go to the bathroom and she wanted to do it too. Since we have been back from Oklahoma she has only had two accidents and that makes us soooo happy! She gets extremely excited to see her poopoo!!! Everytime she wants Matt and I both to see it before she flushes the potty. And then once she flushes the potty, she will start waving to the toilet and say, "Bye Bye poopoo!!" I know sooo gross, but had to write it down so in 20 years we can embarass her! She really wants to get her ears pierced so we told once she goes an entire week without having an accident mommy and daddy will take her to get her ears pierced. Life has been MUCH more simple since Payten has decided to go to the bathroom on the potty. :) She has known for awhile how to hold her blatter and go on the potty, but she is a very stubborn girl and is not going to do anything until she makes her mind up. Congratulations Payten!!!!! We knew you had it in you. :) She always uses the big potty but today she decided she wanted to use the little potty. I don't care which one she chooses just as long as she chooses one!
