Potty Training Continues

We're still in the midst of potty training, but today was a big day. Julie had her first accident-free day! She has been happy to wear underwear, but we've given her the nickname of "Miss Disassociation" given her willingness to happily pee in her pants. Until lately, she's been better and better about telling us when she needs to go. Nate on the other hand has been resistant to wear underwear all together, so we've adjusted to plopping him down morning & night to get him un-afraid of the potty routine. It's working. He too is going more consistently although he's still in diapers. So much for everyone's suggestion of "just throw them in underpants for a weekend", which proved untenable. Our eventual solution: M&M jar in the kitchen. One granted for #1, two for #2. Combination rewards honored by the management. And lots of verbal praise. As a result, they couldn't be happier and we're seeing a light at the end of the tunnel.
