For the past few months, I've been encouraging Mae to use the potty before her nap and before bedtime. Sometimes she goes, sometimes she doesn't. The good news is that she is interested in trying. Yesterday we were at the Worthington Community Center playground and I used the facilities. She told me she needed to go, but since she feels the need to strip naked before she sits on the toilet, I told her not this time. Then a minute later she dirtied her diaper. So today we have started a full potty training routine. I'm asking her to sit on the potty every two hours. I'm not expecting miracles, but I do hope she will be fully potty-trained by her third birthday this October. My biggest problem with Sage was that I wasn't willing to commit to it until it became embarrassing for him to still be in diapers. So I hereby state my commitment to fully potty-training Mae by her third birthday!
