Potty Training

We spent the past weekend following a “3-day potty training” regime that recommended from one of the other mom’s.  We started on Friday morning and by the first night Delilah seemed to get it.  The numbers were quite staggering - day one was 7 accidents and 23 successes!  Yes, 30 times in one day might seem like a lot but the plan had us giving her juice throughout the day and, more importantly, a reward for each success (she was very excited after her first success - as pictured above).  She might have gotten addicted to Sweet Tarts from this effort.

Overall it was a total success - by the end of the weekend the daily accidents were at a minimum and we were only having issues over night (as expected.)  Monday night we even got our our first successful “coconuts” (as termed by Delilah.)
