Potty Training

We have been hanging out at home the last few days to potty train Savannah. We have made several attempts in the past that resulted in huge meltdowns, not to mention how Savannah responded. So, we took a good two month break from all things pottying. We started again Monday evening. She had like four accidents that afternoon. However, she never got horribly upset like she had in past attempts. Thus I was heartened that we had a fighting chance of success. Yesterday morning we had another accident. Then after her nap, something miraculous happened. She went on the potty for the first time. She has not looked back. We still put a pull up on her overnight, but she was only slightly wet this morning (huge change from normal). She has not had another accident. She seems to have figured it (peeing) out. Of course we still have the other to contend with, so here's hoping it all comes out OK. I am seeing the light at the end of the two in diapers tunnel and I am thrilled. As Elmo of Sesame Street said, "Hurray for underpants!"
