potty training success (I hope I didn't just jinx us!)

We can officially say we have two potty trained girls. Well, at least we have two girls who where underwear all day and rarely have an accident. (Little Pie still needs to produce a #2 in the potty, but I guess it's normal for this to take a while). 

So, since both girls have filled out their Olivia potty charts, we went to Target today to pick out their rewards. (While I'm still ridiculously sick with the most annoying cold to date, I could manage a trip to Target). 

We walked into the Nickelodeon section and I put six options on the floor for Little Pie to choose from. I guess I should mention that I had to cave and let Little Bird get another toy because she just had to fill out an Olivia chart just like Little Pie. She started regressing anyway when Little Pie started training, so I went with it. But then to be fair, since she already had a Dora toy at home, I let Little Pie pick out two toys. I'm not proud of this move, but I was just trying to prevent any arguments that I would assume would happen. 

Little Pie picked out a Boots and a "ready to paint" Olivia. Little Bird picked out the "ready to sing" Olivia to go along with her Dora toy she got several weeks ago.

These are some pretty proud girls. We are really proud of them too and I am especially grateful that the process wasn't as torturous as I anticipated it would be!
