So, we are potty training for real this time. Not just trying it out. We went through about 12 pairs of panties yesterday without one full pee in the potty. Good news is that she never pooped so she must know not to do that in panties. She is holding it because she usually poops about 3 times a day. So-we did put a diaper on last night to keep from cleaning the bed this morning. She did not pee on the couch--which is also good. But we would sit her on potty and give her a big talk about where pee pee/poop goes and try to bribe her with suckers but 30 seconds after we put her panties on she would do it again. She would say look at this puddle and we would come in living room and she would be splashing in pee puddles. This kid has not worn pants for 2 days now. The bad thing is that I am sentenced to be at home if Matt isn't home because I am trying to be consistant. I just figured I better do it now because I am off this week. This morning she is sitting on the potty and I am not letting her up till she does it. She has been sitting for 20min now and doesn't care--according to her---I told her she could sit all day but I know she has to go and she is not going to do it in the panties. I learned my lesson yesterday. She sat on potty and then asked to put her panties on---soon as they were up she was peeing in them. So we are in a stand off. Wish me luck. I will need it. She is a stubborn child. I am letting her drink juice right now in hopes that she will have no choice because she will be so filled with liquid. I will keep you posted.

aggghhh! good luck christy! you can do it! it is just for one week and maybe after that it will be over!
maybe you could entice her with the dora "we did it" song. you know...."if you pee in the potty then we will sing". i'm sure ya'll have come up with plenty of rewards though. i am so dreading the showdown with jenny!
