Potty Chair

Lately, Ella has been telling us when she wants a diaper change or letting us know when she pooped. So we went to Toys R Us and let her pick out her very own potty chair. Potty chairs these days come in all sorts of shapes, sizes, one that sing, and ones that make noises, extra. Ella picked that one that has a flusher, sings songs and has a holder for her very own toilet paper roll. When we opened up the box on Sunday she was so excited to try it out. At first she sat on it with just her clothes on and then she wanted everything off. I got her some juice and Jake began to read some new books I ordered from the Library. Of course they were all about going potty. She probably sat there 15-20 min and then the potty chair started SINGING!! She went potty!!! Yeah we danced and jumped up and down for her. Then she wanted to sit again and sure enough she went again!! By the third try of sitting on her potty chair she wanted some big girl underwear on. I put them on hoping she would stay dry for a bit this time but no such luck. About 5 min later she had wet her pants. Then I had a mess to clean up, not so much fun. Yesterday, she asked for potty time again but had no success and a couple of accidents. Today, she wanted potty time but nothing came out.
We are not ready to start really potty training her until we both can stay home for an entire weekend and concentrate on it but for now its fun getting her excited about being a big girl and using the potty!
