Brianna insisted on wearing her panties on top of her pajamas because I still make her wear a diaper at night! By the morning, she was still wearing them! She reminded us of some kind of Super Underwear Hero! She is a silly girl. Potty training has had it's ups and downs for us. Brianna was doing really well and almost completely potty trained...even at night...before she turned 2! Then she started teething with her incisors and it's been hit and miss lately. It seems to be an every other day thing. One day she'll do great with no accidents, and the following day she will not have any successes!!! It started getting really frustrating and so I decided to do a new kind of potty chart! Since Brianna is obsessed with Dora I decided we needed a Dora Potty Training Adventure! Here's a photo of her chart:Brianna needs to help Dora save Boots (or whatever Dora toy she's working for) from the Gooey Geiser! First they have to get over the River, then through the Echo Bush and then she'll get to the Gooey Geiser and save her friend (which is waiting on the shelf above the toilet)! Every time Bri goes potty in the toilet Dora moves from one velcro stone to the next! Since Brianna hasn't seemed to care anymore if she has an accident we added Swiper to the chart. If she has an accident then Swiper makes Dora move back one space. It's been working pretty well, though some days are still better than others. She earned her second toy, "Isa" today and she's thrilled! Hopefully this will work!
