I hope everyone had a great Memorial Day weekend. The Zfam took advantage of the extended weekend to conduct PT boot camp...3 days of serious nonstop potty training. Rebecca did not leave the house or back yard for the entire 3 days. We had every intention of going to church Sunday, but when I woke up with a stomach bug, I decided to keep her home as well and not break the momentum, if there was any. Rebecca has been quite the reluctant "big girl". Here are some numbers that give a glimpse of how it's been going:
False alarms in one 90 minute period (Yes. I counted.).......... 23
Average number of seconds spent on the potty after "NEE GO POTTY!!!" is proclaimed...... 4
Number of times Mommy failed to react urgently to "NEE GO POTTY!!!" and regretted it..... 6
Songs made up to encourage normal bodily functions...... 2
MnMs given to reward normal bodily functions.......... 27, give or take
Potential savings on diapers if PT can be mastered..... $48.36/month
I think we made progress over the weekend, but today it's back to real life...errands, school pick ups/drop offs, volleyball games, etc. I'm not looking forward to the inevitable accidents and trips to public restrooms (YUCK!), but whata ya gonna do?
How about you? How did you spend the holiday weekend?

Much the same way you did with out the success. I keep saying that I am giving up and waiting until she is a little older and then she surpises me and goes on the potty! So I am some where in between potty training and giving up! ;-}
