Potty Trained!

I can barely believe it myself, but it is true.  Vivie is potty trained!  I think it started Monday when we randomly tried her panties again.  She promptly peed into them twice in a row requiring a full outfit change (socks included).  I rolled my eyes and wondered why in the world I even bothered with MegaLou imminently on her way.

Not fully ready to give up, I went and got the little portable potty from the basement and cleaned it out.  Was a wasted purchase for Pip since half the fun of going potty for him was getting to stand and aim like Daddy and/or climb onto the thing itself.  Vivie isn't quite as excited about climbing as Pip and obviously standing is only an option for her if she keeps using the diaper.  Thus the novelty of getting to pee in the living room and knowing she could physically make it there in time actually worked.  She loves that little potty!

We had a bunch more accidents since, but we've literally not worn diapers all week.  She now wears pull-ups only for naps and bedtime.  She doesn't even wear them when we go out.  We've had no accidents outside the house either!  It's amazing to me, but I suppose she really was just ready. 

Go Vivie!!
