So... 3 months ago I started potty training Mikayla. At first her biggest challenge was learning to hold it for longer than 15 minutes. Amazingly she CAN 'hold it' for a couple hours at a time now! But... if she wears a pull-up or underwear, she has one accident after another. So... for the last few months Mikayla has been potty training naked. It's taught her potty independence at home but when we're on the go or it's bedtime she is perfectly happy to use her diaper or pull-up instead.
It's time to take this to the next level; leaving the house wearing underwear! No parent wants their child to pee their pants in the checkout isle of the grocery store or in their carseat, but if the accidents in inconvenient places help teach her to hold it when it counts then so be it!! I did it with Madelyn, it's time to take this challenge on with Mikayla!
My Mikayla... this girl quite a large personality for such a small little girl. She's stubborn, curious, demanding, impulsive, talkative and full of energy!! Preschool is a MUST this Fall!! We just got to get this potty training thing down first!!

Good luck Mikayla! Don't worry, your daddy pees on himself all the time and he's a big boy! :)
I'm nervous about potty training & it's something we won't even think about doing for almost a year! It's definitely not something I'm looking forward to!
