Adventures in Potty Training

I have been wanting to potty train Eva for awhile but with everything that is going on in our life it's also the last thing on my mind. I still try to talk to her about it and try to get her excited about it. This was our conversation the other night:

Me: "Hey Eva, did you know that if you go potty on the toilet you get treats?"

Eva: "Yay!"

Me: "Yeah, skittles (her favorite)! One skittle for #1 (I can't decide what to call this? Any suggestions?) and 2 skittles for poopy!"

Eva: "One skittle and TWO skittles??"

(A few minutes pass)

Eva: "Mom, I have to go potty on the toilet!"

(I put her on the toilet to see what happens. Nothing happens.)

Eva: "Umm, can I have a skittle now?"

It's going to be quite the process. . .

Eden was kind of the same way 6 months ago (Eva's age). But I've finally got her potty trained! Its no fun...I admit it.

Ha ha ha, that's great she is so excited about it. I think she'll be potty trained (and on a sugar high) before you know it!
