Potty training

This may seem like such a trivial thing to so many of you. But this week we have had a miracle in our home!! Vienna despite the business of doing a giveaway and getting ready for market has started and finished potty training! We're done, she's there, that was it! 1 Week! She has barely even had an accident once she got going. Vienna has been " quwean and dry" and she says clean and dry for 5 nights in cotton panties!!! We are soooo excited! Evan was a nightmare to train and took an eternity! What night a day kids can be. Now we just have to really keep the praise going to solidify the training, and finish her chart for a big prize! Which will take no time at all! My little super star Vienna!!! I am so thankful for this blessing, when everything else around me seems to be so busy and caotic.
Vienna is so proud of her panties! She will drop trow to show her princess panties to everyone. Something we do, NEED, to cure her of!
And I just love that she some how she got no bum when I clearly have lots to spare! Her cute little non - cheeks!
Quite the get up for going potty don't you think?!

P.S. I am still taking orders for my quilt pattern. The below posts have all the details. Send me and e-mail at elizabeth@lizzyanne.com with your name address and quantity.
1 for $12 or 5+ for $6 each

Congratulations to Vienna! What an accomplishment! Picking out which princess panties will be worn is still the highlight of my little Gracie's day. I think she thinks they must match whatever fancy shoes and hair accessories she will be wearing! Love this age!

Vienna, is such an adorable girl. I know you must be proud, and thankful for her big girl success in using the potty. I have 2 grandson I keep while their mother work that will soon be in training, I hope they do well without their diapies.

Great Job!

Yay! My daugther was WAY easier to train than my son. Lily was trained at a little over age 2. Ian went until 2 weeks before his third b-day before he was trained. Congrats on the milestone!

Oh my gosh, what an adorable princess! I think boys are always more difficult to potty train than girls. Good job! Hugs***Renea

Congratulations, how sweet. I came over from Nadine's blog, who had mentioned your quilt giveaway but I've been away, so I missed it.

These are the cutest pix.

Shauna said...

YAHOO!! She is too stinkin' cute! I love seeing kidlets in glasses! I bet she just loves wearing her undies!!

sweetmemorymakingmom said...

YAH!!!! This is not a small milestone! Jane was potty trained this summer! It is such a relief! Once she was potty trained I got rid of the training potties. Both my girls climb up on the big potty! Love it because now all I have to do is double check that they have flushed! :) hugs,Ellen

p.s. I am still bumming that I didn't win that beautiful quilt! LOL

Priceless!
