Potty Training - Day 1

Well, here was the plan for the day: lots of salty snacks (to make her thirsty), lots of drinks (to make her need to pee), big girl panties, the potty, and a day spent on the kitchen floor trying to keep the panties dry! So I laid out a towel bought peanuts, pretzels, sunflower kernels, and M&M's at her request then had an icy drink, apple juice, her princess water, and MY water jug that she loves to drink out of. We sat there and she ate snacks for like an hour and a half to two hours but she didn't drink a ton so she never needed to go potty. She seemed to be getting bored so she asked if she could color so I told her that she could run to her room really quickly and grab her crayons and coloring books. Well in that 30 seconds she was gone she had an "accident" on her closet floor. FUN. So we cleaned her up and put on dry panties and headed back to the kitchen.
This time around she decided she would just hang out on the potty and color, even though I encouraged her to only sit on the potty when she needed to go :)
A bit later she was tired of all the sitting around and she said she wanted a diaper. I didn't want to burn her out so we diapered her up, put on her cozy jammies, and then she got some quality daddy time playing Mario on the Wii! She LOVES Mario!
To be continued tomorrow...... :)
