Addie really needs to be potty trained... She brings me fresh diapers and wipes, lays down to be changed and likes to wipe. She loves to flush and says "bye poo or pee". She hates normal diapers and wants to wear her princess pullups. She grabs herself when she goes to the bathroom, and can go all night without an accident. The problem is... I'm LAZY! I don't want to do it!!!
Today I decided I'd start and not stress over it. I got caught on the phone right after she got off the potty, and so I missed the time she was supposed to get back on by just a few minutes and she had an accident, but then we had a pee success, woohoo! Then I was busy with some ebay selling stuff, and she had a few accidents in a row, including a TERRIBLE poo one during dinner (GROSS), then later after bath and cleanup she brings me her potty and her book and so we get her situated and she pooped... barely! But still, that is good!
So, I've got to be more consistent... hard to do when you need to clean, cook, run errands, etc.
Any suggestions for solving accidents during dinner? I try to take her before she sits down, but I hate to get her up mid-meal to try to potty... but we always have accidents during meal time!
Also, if any of you would like to come do it for me, I'll pay you! :) Errr... Jarom says yeah right. Darn!

We JUST got Parker potty trained! We had tried several times before, but he had always slipped back..The biggest thing for us was going straight to undies and so he could really feel when he had an accident, and also BE CONSISTENT. That last part is the hardest thing when you are a busy parent and it is so much easier just to put the diaper on. :) Good Luck!
Mandi is correct, I do remember that yall didn't like wet undies and face it sweetie you are going to have to 'put your shoulder to the wheel'.....but then again how much are you paying? :)
This may be ridiculous, but you could sit her on a little potty at the table for dinner. My kids usually had accidents after dinner, so I don't really know. It would be a pain to take them mid-meal though. Potty training just plain stinks, but when they finally get it, it's great! Good luck!
Hang in there girl. It took Maclane a few weeks to get it, but the last 6 months have been awesome! No more buying diapers. :)
Wow- you are very brave! We're still working on Taylor.. although we haven't been very consistent because diapers are definitely more convenient when you're busy. I finally went about a week ago and bought her real panties because the Pull-ups really don't do the job. She absolutely refuses to poop on the potty though and has yet to do it once. Good luck!
