This past long weekend, we started potty training Jasmine again. Yes, again. We've been training on and off since she turned 2 years old to no success. Jasmine will be turning 3 next month so we think she should be out of diapers by then.
After 3 days of hardcore training, Jasmine peepee and pooped in the bathroom toilet today! Yay! I'm so proud of her. We could see it in her face, of how proud of herself she was too (not to mention all the chocolate she got when she made it to the toilet).
For the past 3 days, we let Jasmine run around butt naked from the waist down. By doing this, Jasmine learned how to hold it in and run to the bathroom when she had the urge to go. Previously we put Jasmine in underwear and she would pee/poo on the floor so that didn't work. I'm so glad we decided to change our strategy.
It's funny watching her run back and forth from the living room to the bathroom constantly as she learns how to use her bladder muscles. It's definitely a learning process. We'll continue training her (go naked) for a few more days until she routinely uses the bathroom all time. Go Jasmine go!

Yayyy Jasmine! I always wondered how people trained their kids to pee and poop in the potty. Good thing it is not too cold yet.
Next summer we will be hard core training Megan. Right now trying to get her to sleep in the big bed, but she doesn't want to give up her crib. Poor Benjamin is still in the bassinet and outgrowing it quick.
Jasmine is still in her crib as well! The day we switch her over to a proper bed is when she is not afraid to climb over the railing and falling on the floor. That crib keeps her inside the room! (or else we'll have a hell of a time getting her to sleep)
Awww, lucky Ben is still very tiny and can sleep in the bassinet for now. My friend still has her 10 month old daughter in their bassinet.
