My Big Girl

Congrats to my big girl!  Kirra has gone a whole week with NO accidents.  Including nap time or bed time.  This is a huge weight off my shoulders.  I need to apologize to her because I really was beginning to think there was no hope.  I guess I just started too early.  When she was ready she did it all on her own.  Now we are working on moving from the practice potty to the real thing.  I must say potty training was a lot harder than I anticipated.  I am not a big fan of picking pee and poo off the floor.  Kirra could not easily be bribed either.  When she wanted chocolate she would do her business in the potty.  When she didn't really care for chocolate, the floor worked just fine.  She responded the best to praise.  Although i am beginning to regret all the singing and dancing I did for her because now she has to personally show me every success she has in the potty.  She also likes to pull out her potty and show everyone we skype with her new talent.  Oh the joys of parenthood.  Now onto the list of other things she needs to learn.  For now though I think I will just sit back and enjoy the fact that I don't have to touch anymore poopy diapers.  At least for now.
