Potty training x2

Potty training started mid-January.  The first two days were ROUGH!  Our philosophy is to go straight to the underwear so they "feel it" instead of the pull-ups that keep them so dry.  That first weekend we were giving them extra liquids so they had more opportunities to go to the bathroom but mostly they were just having accident after accident.  We kept them on the the hardwood floors so it was easy clean-up.  We played puzzles and games, but after doing that for a week it got really old.

Today is day 20, and we are averaging 0-2 accidents a day between both girls.  Not bad at all, and overall I think they are doing great and we need to be appreciative of how far they have come.  However, I am really ready for them to master this, I am tired of spending so much time in the bathroom helping them :(  Maybe by spring/summer they will be able to do it completely on their own!

A little bathroom reading
Sportin' the new training underwear....no pants for a few days.  Just more to get wet and change, and more to pull down when it's time to go.
