Another big day! So, we left for the fair at about 9:30 or 10:00 this morning and we just put a diaper on Madeline, thinking it was going to be a pretty long day. We must have been distracted by all the animals, good food & carnival rides because we didn't realize we hadn't checked her diaper until about 1:30 in the afternoon. We knew we had waited too long and scrambled to find a changing area. When we took her diaper off she was completely dry!!!! Mommy immediately took her to the bathroom and she went - yeah!!!
After the horse show, demo derby and a pony ride we were getting ready to go. We checked her diaper - dry again! Back to the bathroom and she went again!!!
Still a dry diaper when we got home. She went on her potty chair, so that definitely meant she got to watch an episode of her favorite show - Little Einsteins :-) Here's a great picture of her and Grandpa singing and saying "Blast-Off!"
That afternoon she realized that if she went on the potty that meant she got to watch her favorite show, so after every episode was over, she would run to her potty chair, go a little bit and then yell "Einsteins, Einsteins!" We have one smart little cookie on our hands!
We've been so good about her watching very little TV so we really didn't want this to become a habit. We decided to change the reward for going on the potty... Bunny Crackers for a potty and Einstiens for the other. She may get more Bunny Crackers than she ever has before, but at least she won't be plopping her bum in front of the TV all the time :-)
After dinner it was off to the bath tub...
An entire day without going in her diaper once!
We're not going to get our hopes up, but we think she may have got it!
