Underpants



Little Miss Lily Rose is not potty trained.  I tried a while back and she would sometimes go on the potty and sometimes not.  She tells me when she poops and pees, but she never tells me ahead of time so we can get her on the potty.  We have tried putting her on the potty in the mornings, before bed, after naps and before naps, but this didn't work either.  The other day I finally said we are putting her in underpants and letting her go.  She got out of the shower last week and was naked and told me she had to pee so we went to the potty and she did go so I thought that maybe having on underpants would be similar.  My thinking was that she would pee in them and not like the feeling of being all wet and this would help her learn.  We have tried books and movies about potty training, but it hasn't worked.  Well...the underpants didn't work either.  I put them on her Saturday morning and I kept asking her if she had to go potty and she kept telling me no.  A while later I saw that her shirt was all wet and I felt her underpants and they too were soaked AND there was a puddle in her bean bag.  It didn't phase her one bit.  She could have cared less that she peed herself and was soaked.  I even asked her then if she went potty and she told me no!  Little stinker.  After that I put her back in her diapers.  Jason was at work and I need a partner in crime to tackle this with me next time!  A funny story...we went to Walmart and let Lily pick out her own underpants.  She pulled them out of the package and put them on her head.  A lady saw her and stopped and was laughing and told us we needed a picture of this for her wedding someday.  Lily tells everyone that underpants go on her head...gotta love her!
