Potty Training Trials

We are currently engaged in all out war with Ashlynn over potty training.  It is a battle of wills.  The score today is Ashlynn 2 and parents 1.  We started off the day with a bang and it has been downhill ever since.

The battle hasn't been without its moments though.  Some of the more memorable moments are

- As Ashlynn is going to be on the opening night of the campaign "You be mean and I go peepy in the potty"
- Later after she had been allowed to wander naked for awhile she disappeared for-awhile and suddenly proclaimed that she went poop-poop.  Sure enough there some in her potty and her pull up was no where to be found, but you can guess what really happened........
- Still later after April had thought she was making progress.  Ashlynn had gone a number of times in one day, but only with April out of the room.  Upon further examination (peeping through the door one time) it was discovered that Ashlynn was dipping her hands into the toilet and splashing water on her bottom and claiming she had gone peepy to get candy.

Wish us luck.........
