She started out brilliantly and then decided to "hold it" until nap/night time when I'd put on her pull-ups. She's old enough and smart enough (not to mention she showed me she knew how at first) that I knew she was aware of her tactics. We're talking 2 hours of me sitting by her reading books, letting her watch a movie while sitting on her port-o-potty after 3 sippies full of orange juice. Nothing. Lorin and Izzy even came in with their dollies and practiced grunting noises with Ryan. Nothing. Anyway, a few pooping accidents about put me over the edge. But she finally decided Mom was not going to give up and, like I said, figured it out a few days later.
We went to the lake about 10 min away on Dec. 31--can you believe it was nice enough to strip down? I didn't come prepared for swimming--pull-ups and socks will do :)
I posted Christmas stuff on the family blog, but here's one of Ryan getting what she asked Santa for.
