FINALLY! A BIG GIRL!!! :)

I've written before about our potty-training battle with Mattie Leigh. I knew she knew how to tell when she needed to go and that she was using her pull-ups for the convenience of it. It was easier to just hide or squat and go in a pull-up than it was to get undressed to go to the potty. I had enough of that this weekend! I told her she was going to start wearing her panties (except at night because we still have some nighttime wetting) and going to the potty every time. We were really busy Monday so we decided to wait until Tuesday to start. After I put her first pair on Tuesday, she hid behind the recliner and peed in them. She HATED the feeling of it and wanted them off immediately. (By the way, I learned that Mattie Leigh has a spiteful side and will do things just to prove she can.) She didn't have any accidents the rest of the day. She went all day Wednesday and did great! She had an accident at church Wednesday night but only because she couldn't make it in time after she realized she needed to go. She didn't have any accidents yesterday and is doing great today! So, it appears that I finally have a big girl! She loves telling everyone that she is a big girl and that she wears panties now.
