Panties & Pull-Ups

I know not too many people blog anymore or have time to comment, but I'll still share with my faithful readers.  I escaped to Abilene this past weekend and enjoyed some girl time.  Christi is pregnant with her third baby, and this time it's a GIRL!  We had fun shopping, eating out with Amanda and her baby girl, and of-course getting pedicures.

Now, my title says panties & pull-ups, which probably tells you we're potty training.  Not so much!  They both woke up dry this morning, so I thought I'd put them in underwear to see how it went.  After 3 accidents and neither one successfully going in the potty, they're back in pull-ups and down for naps.  Let me just share 1 story.  I was in the other room with Bethany, and when I came back in the living room, Zachary was sitting on the couch with NOTHING on, and his underwear was in the middle of the floor.  He had peed and decided to take off his underwear.  If he can't tell me he needs to go, or even tell me when he does go, I don't think he's ready!  I know everybody's different, but I'm not going to chase them around and fight them to sit on the potty.  I think we'll wait a little longer!
We do have a success story though...Zachary doesn't use his pacifiers anymore.  What a big boy :)

I'm so happy that you 3 girls got to have some quality time together! Christi looks great and I'm so happy she's having a girl!
I'm completely with you on the potty training issue. Nathan trained a long time ago and was a complete breeze. He only had a hand-full of accidents at the beginning. We didn't even use pull-ups with him. Logan, though, is a completely different story! He's like Zachary. He doesn't indicate a need to go. If I put him on the potty, he will get some out. We might try to train him soon, but I wanted to wait a while for him to show that he is more ready. The Potty Watch is what I used to help train Nathan. I'll probably use that for Logi, too.
Good luck!!! :-)

I saw the potty watch online for $15 but was hoping to find it cheaper. Seems like a good idea!
