Potty training in progress

Jillian is showing interest in potty training.  Especially after seeing that some of her little friends are using the big potty.  Doesn't hurt to have some slightly older friends for her to hang out with. 

She is really just getting started.  She has successfully used the potty on multiple occasions, but won't always use it.  We are just taking it slow for now, which seems to be working.  She will ask sometime to go potty and will actually go.  Of course not every time since I think she sometimes asks to go right after she has used her pull ups. 

In the last few weeks she has even started to let daddy or papaw take her to the potty.  At first she was more resistant to them helping her. 

To encourage her to use the big potty we give her a special treat if she goes.  She gets M & M's and seems to really understand the link.  She will go and then say get MM's (as she calls them), but luckily she isn't asking for the every time she goes.

During her bath on this past Saturday she peed in the tub.  After doing this she told us what she did and asked, get MM's?  Um. nope sorry we don't get MM"s for peeing in the bathtub.  Silly girl.
