That is what I have been saying for the past week. On Father's Day, Lydia decided she all of a sudden wanted to sit on the potty. Up to this point, she has gone completely stiff bodied anytime we even mention the potty.
But last week she was singing a new tune ... "I pee pee, Mommy." Along with an actual new song -- "Squeeze the poo-poo out ..." -- forgive me if that's too much ;)
I told the nursery staff that she had found me in my bathroom that morning saying, "I pee pee, Mommy." Little did I know, she had actually taken her bloomers and diaper off on her own and was completely naked under her dress while telling me this!
When I picked her up from nursery, this sticker was on her back ...
... and I thought, "I am so not ready for this."
I really cannot decide at all if she's really ready. She's been saying she wants to sit, she's interested, she can tell me when she needs a diaper change -- I just thought we'd have an easy summer with diapers and a fully ok 5-year-old. Plus, I just don't want to try potty training just to have pee-pee accidents all the time. EB found this book at the library yesterday ...
I may decide to give it a real try this week. We may be rolling up all the rugs and pulling out the training panties soon. For now, we're just letting her sit when she wants and letting her wear pull-ups to make things a bit easier.
