Aack! we have slipped big time today.
Last night little C was very restless and ended up sleeping with us completely (she kept me up until 2:30 trying to help her sleep though) but stayed dry all night.
After that though its a whole different story - we missed all of her pees this morning, poop did make it in the potty. Little C ended up wearing a pull up for a bit in the early afternoon and for nap, so not completely diaper free, but her choice. we figured it was a chance for her to relax.
After nap she woke up refreshed and went back into underwear, again her choice, and stayed mostly dry, one accident. She really like to pee outside, requested to go 2 times this evening.
so maybe not as bad as I thought. the morning was rough though, we could tell she had to go, and could see she could feel it - but no interest in the potty or the toilet. We just kept repeating "Go pee pee, tell mommy. Go pee pee, tell Daddy" Mostly trying to get her comfortable with letting us know she has to go.
She does know:
"no pee pee on mommy"
"no pee pee on daddy"
"no pee pee on 4 wheeler"

Day three - No Diapers
Today was more of a 50/50 split on success. Just as many accidents as catches, but little C is still very proud of herself for not wearing diapers, she keeps chanting "no diapers". And despite our misses she is definitely connecting peeing to a feeling before hand.
We had a really rough night last night, little C woke up wet but refused to be changed and we spent about an hour trying to get her changed and she managed to pee twice on the floor, but we did make it.

Day two - no diapers
We made it through the night and her nap today dry
We were out of the house for about 4 hours and only had 2 accidents, both really from mom and dad not paying attention.
We had 2-3 requests for the potty and made it through the whole day with only 3 or 4 accidents.
I am amazed at how well this is going we had every intention of canceling this if it got to be too much for little C. But she is absolutely pleased with our "game".
She announced several times today - NO Diapers! Yeah!
We still have some things to work on, telling mom & dad when she has to go mostly (she can and does tell us that she's going 75% of the time now)

Day one - totally diaper free
I took today off from work to a) give me an even longer long weekend and b) to give me 4 days home with little C were we could work on potty training, and we are spending the weekend diaper free.
We have a planned outing tomorrow and well we got an outing today :)
We started without diapers after work last night until bed time, when we diapered her back up.
There were plenty of puddles last night and we never made it to the potty but she does know whats happening.
This morning we jumped right into being diaper free and made it to the toilet all but 3 times, one of those was nap time.
We are trying to get her to be more vocal about letting big C or I know that she is going (next will be telling us before she has to go)
Surprisingly there were no accidents at the Dr. Office, a big shock all things considered.
We are doing a bit of shopping in the morning, although she's been better about telling us she needs to go when we are out.
All in all I would say day 1 went really well.

Emergency Dr. Visit
We had our first emergency Dr. visit this morning.
little C had a good size embedded splinter in her heel, kept crying, wouldn't let me touch it and wouldn't walk on it.
This required an office surgery - yikes.
Not too horrible but she needed a local anesthetic and there was blood. Took about 10 min to remove all of the splinter but they got it all out and put a bandage on her heel.
She was very brave, she did cry but she was mostly mad that she was being held and people were poking at her sore foot.
After we left the procedure room and were checking out, she got a sticker and life was much better :)
She came home a proceeded to nap for 3+ hours until 4:30.
She currently has NASCAR band aids on both feet, but she's resting peacefully.
It may have been hardest on me.
Today was her 3rd non well-baby/ child visit, pretty amazing for a little over two years.
