Anna has earned a lot of stickers on her chart for sitting on the potty this past week and she earned a stuffed pig and a magic wand for pooping on the potty (I won't go into any more detail than this, don't worry). No pee yet but I'm learning when her best chances are and I think it's just a matter of getting used to the routine and being relaxed enough to go. I ended up not really liking the No-Cry Potty training book and I'm not sure why I bought it because I didn't like the No-Cry Sleep training book by the same author. I really do like the Diaper-Free Before 3 by Jill Lekovic though and am going to figure out my plan and implement it.
Right now is a great time because Anna is out of school for a couple of weeks. However, I noticed over the weekend that we had a harder time being consistent when Craig is around but now I know this so will be more aware of it. My feelings are reminiscent of making a plan to wean Anna from breastfeeding and the pacifier-elimination plan we did last year. Both of those were not nearly as bad as I had imagined (both went really well, actually) so I'm hopeful that this will go smoothly as well (of course I expect accidents; I'm not naive!).
