The three P's

It's official, Isabella has consistently achieved the three P's that go together so well... "peepy, poopy and potty"! This has been a long time in the making. It started over a year ago when she was just 18 months or so. We introduced the potty and she would use it and love it. Then of course, the novelty of it wore off and so we backed off. In the beginning of the year (when this picture was taken), she started using it again and had great success when she was naked, which in our house, for her at least, translates to almost all the time when she's home. Again, we didn't push as we were awaiting Eliana's arrival and didn't want to experience regressing with the potty. So a few weeks ago, we made the giant leap and started just using panties and made a big deal of it...went shopping for "special panties" with grandma created a potty chart, had a song and dance "Happy Potty Day"...you get the picture. And now we are proud parents of a potty-trained 2 1/2 year old! It's fabulous!
