We're still here! I have internet in the house again! HOORAY!
Bug went potty!
On the 5th (of June) Bug went in her potty for the first (and only to date) time!
We kept working on it, and then we moved and well, to be honest - I don't actually know where the potty chair is now. BUT - I plan to find it tomorrow and get back to work again!
Any tips would be great! I don't have the first clue what we're doing!

I think I told you, but we gave M an m&m when she did go. We also had her help clean up accidents. Putting her in panties helped more than pull-ups did. Oh, and if there's an accident, go to the "scene of the crime," and practice running to the potty form that spot.
I'm potty training Aiden right now too! We're just bribing him. Every time he goes he gets a piece of Candy. And I bought some training undies so he will wet his clothes and be uncomfortable. However my plan has not worked b/c even if he wets himself he doesn't care...he just wants to keep playing. I'm just trying to keep at it. If you come up with any good ideas let me know too!
We used the 3-day potting training method with our 1st two kids and it worked great! Our son was 27 months when we potty-trained him and our daughter was 20 months.
Basically, the rules are this: TONS of liquids. You want them to have to go a lot. Watch them CONSTANTLY. And remind them OVER AND OVER AGAIN to tell you when they need to go potty. (IMO, they aren't really potty-trained until they can tell you when they have to go.) If you see them start to go somewhere other than on the toilet, pick them up and RUSH them to the bathroom, telling them potty goes in the toilet. Lots of praise, no negatives until they get it down. NO PULLUPS. Pullups are just a glorified diaper. Underwear is the way to go! But like I said, the key is CONSTANT watching. And I do mean CONSTANT.
Our son potty-trained in about a week and our daughter is less than 3 days! You can email me (fluud7 @ yahoo.com) if you have questions or you can buy the e-book for like $10 or $15 at 3daypottytraining.com.
Good luck! :)
