Yesterday was the last day of potty training boot camp... and it went just as well as the other three days. =)
Emily had one number 2 accident, but I think it was a fart turned wrong and she surprised herself as much as us! I also took a risk and chose not to put her in a diaper for her nap (since she'd been dry the last two days during nap and went potty right beforehand)... but it was a Murphy's Law situation and she wet the bed. Oh well. No harm, no foul. =)
We also ventured out of the house again, went to a splash pad to cool off and then went to Target to buy some more little underwear (apparently I didn't have as many on hand as I thought I did).
She still isn't really TELLING us when she needs to go, but if we mention it to her, and she needs to go, she will (otherwise she says "no potty" and we move on). I'm hoping that this will get better and she'll start doing it herself and/or vocalizing the need to us more.
Today I dropped her off at daycare with a couple extra sets of clothes, a sticker potty chart, stickers and some treats. I felt bad dropping her off in underwear when she's not 100% reliable yet, but I have to remind myself that her daycare provider has much more experience at potty training than we do! lol Sounds like she had another number 2 accident today, but otherwise used the little potty at daycare. After dinner tonight she went into the bathroom to (I thought) wash her hands and face (our routine), but soon I hear "Mommy potty!" so I go in there and she's sitting on her little potty with a smile on her face pointing between her legs. lol Sure enough, she'd gone potty without prompting!
Next weekend we're going camping, so that will be interesting. =) On the advice of some other moms, we just ordered a Potette Plus potty. It won't be here in time for this trip, but I think it will be useful to have something to easily travel with.
Over all, I think our potty training boot camp was a success. And I'm really looking forward to that last diaper! =)
