Potty Training

I've known for a while now that we need to get Emma potty trained, especially before this baby comes.  I just kept putting it off...the thoughts of going through it were terrifying.  She has that care-free personality, where she just doesn't really care enough about most things to learn them. 

On Wednesday, I finally got her started.  We packed up her remaining diapers, which she was not at all pleased about, but once I told her we could give them to Cousin Abby, she was more excited.  Then we pulled out the panties.  She has worn pull-ups a couple of times while going out for 4th of July activities and for bed/nap time, but other than that, she's been in her underwear. 


It's been an interesting experience, to say the least.  Emma is such a strong personality.  I knew the major break-through would be when she realized she had to go, and could get herself to the potty before wetting her pants.  And it's happened before I ever thought it would.  She has been getting herself to the potty for most of the day today...and that's day number 3!!  I'm hopeful that this will go more quickly and smoothly than I would have thought.
