Big Girl Panties…

She refuses to take them off!

So, we have at least introduced the potty to Mary Clare.  She likes her big girl panties more than anything having to do with the whole potty training thing.  She begs to wear them, but doesn’t quite realize that you are not supposed go potty in them.  (McCanless at this age, on the other hand, couldn’t stand to mess up her big girl panties; which is how I potty trained her.  It was easy!  Now that I think about it, it must have been her tactile issues…one vice for another, I guess.)

Mary Clare knows the purpose of the potty, how to pull down her panties, how to sit, how to wipe.  One would think she is ready, right?  Not quite.  She always sits, strains (as if she is really going), stands up to have a look, THEN goes.  Four times, she has done this.  I would just say that we will wait until she is older to try again, but she refuses to give up the panties.   So, either I throw away the panties so she’ll not even be able to wear them, or we trek on…
