Our Big Girl

Kate is potty trained! We attempted to potty train her back in June, during a week Matt was off work, and she was just not ready yet.  It was frustrating for all of us, and afterwards, Kate wanted nothing to do with the potty.  For a long time.  She was 100% aware of the whole potty situation, but just refused to use the potty.  She would ask us if she could pee or poop in her diaper and then ask to be changed.  It got pretty ridiculous.  But, then she was starting to get a diaper rash one morning and I told her we needed to take a break from diapers and wear undies instead.  She peed on the potty all that day, so we went out for frozen yogurt to celebrate!



She still didn't want to poop in the potty, so for a few days, we had to put on a diaper for her to poop.  But, then the day we got home from Laura and Sash's wedding, she just started going on the potty.  A few days later, we transitioned her to the big potty, and we haven't looked back! She must have really been ready because she's been accident free and we are so excited to only have one munchkin in diapers.  Her reward for pooping in the potty was ice cream:)
