Big Girl Underwear

Today, like I've done so many times before, I asked Skye, after she went pee pee in the potty, if she wanted to put on a pull-up or big girl underwear ... and for the very first time she said she wanted big girl underwear ... I was shocked ... that had never been the answer ... and to be honest I was a bit apprehensive that once we went into her room and got them that she would have a mini freak out and not want to wear them ...

I was totally wrong ... she got all excited and even ran to the top of the stairs screaming for daddy to come see her "Kitty kitty" (Hello Kitty) underwear ... she was just so proud ...

The first time when she peed wearing them there was a puddle on the chair but she did hustle upstairs when it happened ... and chose my favorite pair in her drawer ...

 

But with these and the next pair it was just a few drops and she held it and got upstairs ... with Strawberry Shortcake ones, her 4th pair of the day they stayed dry the rest of the day ... several hours ... any time she had to go she let me know ...

 

Now she does earn Dum Dum lollipops every time and got alot of them today but I am fine with that ... I am so very proud of her asking to do this all on her own today and sticking with it ... the idea of pooping on the potty still scares the shit ... well maybe doesn't scare her enough to let the shit come out ... but she isn't too keen on that yet ... but all in time ... today was a huge step and I couldn't be more proud of her ...
