Underwear party at our house!

I've been recently motivated to potty train Ella by my sister in law, Jen, and by my neighbor, Kandice. It's just such a task that I tend to push it off until a "better time," which rarely actually comes. So today I decided that even though I'm sick, we're doing it!
So far we've had one little success and Ella has found that if she is wearing big girl underpants, her babies and her puppies need to, too. If you look closely in the picture, each doll/stuffed animal is wearing a pair of Dora underpants. Ella is too cute, I tell you!

How fun! So are you not posting your post about Gracie? My bet is she has an allergy to something you're eating/drinking. Jack's allergic to milk now- so if you want to chat about it call me anytime.

She did look pretty darn cute in her big girl underpants!!

Ella is one of the funnest little girls I know. Funny to have her dolls and stuffed animals wearing underwear! :)

An exciting day! I hope things go well! Lauren wanted to change her panties every couple of hours. She thought they were all so cute she wanted to wear them all!

So far...not so good! She keeps peeing the floor about 5 minutes before I'm about to take her to the bathroom...hopefully it gets better!

Way to start though!
With the support of all her little friends there, she'll catch on.
Good job Ella!
Are you using any bribery...m&m's,any thing like that?
Love you...

Dove chocolate. Dark dove chocolate...yummy.
Yeah - today was a mess. She had the initial little pee in the toilet and then about 5 or 6 accidents.
And she never pooped and she is a regular pooper - she poops a couple of times every day.
Hmmmm...hopefully tomorrow goes better!

Potty training is the pits! Jake still has far too many accidents for me ~ and he's been trained for 2 yrs now! AHHHH!! He just doesn't want to leave his toys and go before it's too late.
I say have all the underware parties you need to get the job done! Good luck!

I think potty training is my LEAST favorite part of parenting....good luck to you, my friend :)

And I WILL call you back one of these days!!

I'm so glad it's five down only one to go at my house. At that the one to go is still at least a year away! Good luck...it's a tough bit of parenting that is.
