Okay, So I have been potty teaching Gracie. Lets just say she is teaching me some new things. I worked hard with both my boys and they were about 3 before they even kinda got it and more towards 3 1/2 before they were perfect on potty time, wiping, and all that jazz.
Bella was SUPER easy! She basically just took Jordan into the bathroom with her for one whole day and she was done. He was her little cheer leader making a huge deal out of pee and poo on the potty. SO that was it one day and I played a minimal role just potty flusher.
Now it is Gracie's turn. Thanks to a friend ours her daughter came over and showed Gracie how it was done. Then with the help of another little boy and a firend of our we went to the zoo with he helped get us in the groove of potty time. The whole trying every 5 mintues in every bathroom the zoo had. Multiple times. =) But thank God they were their so that I didn;t feel like Gracie was holding them back. =)
So now we got it down... almost. We can't do panties or pants.
She can life the dress or skirt to make sure no mess gets on it but she can't figure to pull the panties down before making potty. So she sits panties on on the potty and goes. Then is SO proud that she did it not knowing that she still made a huge mess for mommy to clean up. Sow hy are panties so hard? She can pull them down and pull them up. She just doesn't associate that with going ont he potty. My husband says not to worry she will get it and until them just let her be nakie from the waist down. I guess he can be right. I remember though a girl in my school who never wore panties. not even when she had a skirt or dress on. Yuck.
