Big Girl Panties

Everyday my babies get a little bit older. No matter how much I try to keep them from doing so, they just keep growing up!
Some milestones in the "growing up" are better than others though.

Last month we potty trained Cammie. It was something that I had been dreading a bit. The boys were relatively easy, but they are boys! They can stand up to pee and do it pretty discreetly almost anywhere. Now I was going to have to be prepared to deal with a little lady. No more emergency stops in a parking lot or on the side of the road.

The first week of summer break I decided I was going to bit the bullet, and get rid of the diapers. As usual, my fear was worse than anything we actually had to deal with.  Cameron did great! Totally trained in less than a week, (it took her about 2 days to stop having accidents). She seems to be able to hold it longer than the boys (Kyle) too, and that makes finding a suitable place to go, much easier when we are in a public place. 

In true feminine fashion, Cammie wanted lots of privacy when she started using the toilet. She would sit with a magazine, tell me to leave, and call me when she had finished her business.
She might kill me one day for putting this picture on the Internet, but I couldn't resist.

She is so proud of her "Big Girl Panties" Auntie Allie had sent her some Hello Kitty panties, her favorite!

I told her that if she could go two days with no accidents, I would paint her toe nails. That was all it took to get dry underwear from Cam. She is such a girl!
Her first ever (mini) Pedicure.
Its been more than a month now, and we still have damp panties every now and then, but that's to be expected from a two year old I guess. All in all she's doing great! We are very proud of her latest accomplishment, even if it means she's a little more grown up.
