Potty Training Day V... Last Update!

Ok, this is my official last day of reporting Genne's potty training journey... It have been five days of roller coaster. We were happy, excited, anxious, disappointed, irritated and most importantly PROUD. I am so proud on how awesome and fast she learned through this whole process. Today, she finally poop in the toilet and I think that is a great accomplishment and I am really so proud of her. 
My baby girl is growing up, it is sad but she has too and she is turning unto quiet a wonderful young lady.   She is like my little mini-me and already enjoy doing the same things I did when I was a kid. playing hide & seek, color and dancing and driving someone loco ( I still enjoy that very much from time to time), ha ha ha!
I LOVE THAT GIRL and she is the perfect daughter for me♥
ON HER WAY TO BECOMING EVEN MORE INDEPENDENT 

Potty Training Day IV

Yesterday, she did really well and stayed dry all with a pooping accident. Altough, I am not really county it as a accident since she was still dry anyway, but now she knows where she needs to go poopy in the toilet as well.
I was sitting on the stair when she passed by me and I smelled something stinky, so I ask her if she went poopy and she said yes. I told her nicely that she also needed to go poop in the toilet when she needed to do and all she said was:  " I sorry, mama". I felt so bad because I was kind of irritated that she poop in her underwear, so I guess she figure I wasn't happy about it because after I was done cleaning her up and explain to her again that she needed to also poop in the toilet she said: " Ok mama,"  She can be so sweet and understanding sometimes that I forgot she is ONLY three.
 We are moving in the right direction and hoping to be able to venture outside soon with accidents free. She also got a new present for staying dry all day and letting me know that she needs to do :)

Potty Training Day III

I think she finally got this potty training business. Today, we went THE WHOLE DAY with NO ACCIDENTS. I can barely believe it because I thought it was supposes to take her days or even weeks to get it but as always she surprise me and become a big girl without diapers today. I know, there will still be accident but at least I know that she understand what going on and how it all suppose to happen and what is expecting of her.
To celebrate, she got to call aunt Lisa and had some ice cream. On his way home, Matt got her a little presents for staying dry ALL DAY!  DID I MENTION THAT I AM SUPPER DUPER EXCITED ABOUT THIS... I was so scare to start potty training her because i had no idea how i was going to do this and also thought i was going to spend my whole day/s/week cleaning up accidents on the carpet... She actually only had three yesterday and one of them was in front of the potty ( did not make it on time). She told me she has to go today, before she actually started to go and pee in the potty. Alex took a four hour nap today ( because he was up all night doing who knows what in his room) so Genne and I got to hang out jiust the two of us and played ALL kind of games and dances. She is quiet a fun little kiddo underneath all that attitude and sassyness, ha ha ha!


 We had ice cream

play hide&seek... We need to work on the hide part of the game but still fun.

 We learned the macarema


 Had some outside fun

Playing with her new presents for staying dry all day and telling mommy when she needed to go.

♥PROUD OF MY BIG GIRL♥ SHE IS GROWING UP SO FAST.

Potty Training Day II

Day 2 in the morning was brutal. She has three accidents in the space of an hour and I was starting to get really frustrated because she was screaming and yelling again. However, around 11 o'clock she was starting to stop fighting whenever I will put her in the toilet and went without a problem and  NO ACCIDENTS. She still always say no whenever I ask her if she has to go but I just keep putting her every 15 to 30 min in the potty.
Between potty, we did some fun activities. We played games, legos and hangout in the backyard and I took some pictures of our fun day because I too needed to be entertain through this all process.

Potty Training day I

Look who is wearing underwear now... She did so well for her first day. I mean it wasn't easy, we had a really long day and the first part of the day, she would scream and yell EVERYTIME I would put her in the potty and that was every 15 min. After a while, she was totally ok with the whole going to the potty and will get really excited everything she actually peed in the toilet and she did that 5 TIMES during the day. She did have one accident right before bed time, but we had a good talk about not peeing on the carpet and she said " Ok, mammy", so hopefully she actually understood. 
I'll have to admit, this morning after 5 screaming and yelling, I wanted to give up on Genne, glad I DID NOT. I did with Alex, poor guy is terrify of the potty so I will give him some more time to watch Genne, maybe he will think it is not so bad after all...  I am sure, one day he WILL be potty train or his girlfriend will take care of that for me, ha ha ha! First, we started with pull ups but she kept peeing in it and calling them swim diapers, so I decided to put her in underwear and use pull ups for nap time and bedtime... And plus, she would go potty everytime she had her pull ups one but I think it will work for Alex better then Genne, but we will see.

I am so glad Genne did so well, make a small little light coming through the tunnel of potty training. Thank you baby girl for making it easy on this poor mama who doesn't even know what she is doing.
