Princess Panties!

Genevieve's new attire! :-)



Overnight.

That's how quick Jenna learned to potty train!

She is amazing!

I have to thank my sister for pushing us into it. Jenna ended up pooping in her diaper at Amy's house and we hadn't left any diapers for her so she put some big girl panties on her. Later, she had Jenna sit on the big girl potty to try and go and Jenna sat there for an entire HOUR until she went! Amy rewarded her and since that time (2 days ago) she has only had 3 accidents! Every other time she has gone in the potty. AND...I put a diaper on her at night still, but it has been dry every morning! :-)


It is quite the process for rewarding though. If she goes without having an accident, she gets the following:

To use toilet paper (trust me, this is something she has wanted for a long time, but that we have used as bribery)

To wash her hands with the purple foam soap (again, a form of bribery)

And to get a piece of chocolate.

Good job Genevieve!

Great job! Potty trained kids are great. I did the underware trick with Levi too... although he had Thomas and Lightning McQueen under-roo's. Not sure that Belle would have done it for him!

Big girl Jenna! Potty training is one chore I would happily hire out . Nathan has been pee trained for a long time but the other one is a thorn in my side!
