Potty Training the Twincesses

I posted months ago my plans to potty train. Didn't happen. We were close, then Girlfriend got sick and we were in the process of a temporary move and the next thing you know we're not even close to having either girl potty trained. Now we all know that their daycare won't take non-potty-trained kids in the fall so it was now or never. Time to sh!t or get off the pot (haha). So in a last ditch effort to have them potty trained by fall I took the plunge. No I didn't, I took their diapers away. I just took them away. I gave them 2 evenings in long t-shirts and bare butt. Then I put them in panties. 1 accident from Girlfriend and 2 from Little Miss but yesterday we left the house for the whole day in panties and NO ACCIDENTS! This is why I hate pu!! ups...they just confuse kids...they're just diapers. They are no different than diapers...there are no consequences to peeing in the pu!! up...so why not. Why make the effor to make it to the potty on time. I'm so proud of these girls! To see the progress they've made in just a year is nothing short of amazing! They're smart, funny, loving, good eaters, speak well, polite, non-biting, alphabet singing, potty training, sassy, independent girls and I love them!
