"Potty, Potty, Huwy, Huwy!"

Yes, we are in the midst of potty training with little Haley. Every few weeks she will spend a whole day enthusiastically going pee pee in the potty (with us prompting her about every 20 minutes). We then put her in a pull up to facilitate getting the diaper off and on and using the same pull up as long as she has not titi'd in it. Usually by the end of the day or on the next morning, she has no interest in the potty and is like, "next game..don't wanna play that one today." We figure she's not quite ready yet and is just exploring the possibility so we just go with it when she is ready. More and more often lately she has started asking us, "Pee Pee in the potty?" Then she does it several times and is the one asking about every 2 hours while we prompt her every 20 minutes still. As time goes by it is her idea more and more often which would lead us to think she's more ready. So for the last week we've been wearing pull ups when we're home or going to be near a potty. She's been using the potty most of the day each day with accidents during naps and long outings. Of course we try to stay around the house more, but with a 5 yr. old in baseball and swimming you can only do so much. She's doing pretty good, but I thought it's always supposed to be more of a light switch thing...like now we are doing it. She knows to ask for it when she's in the mood...but doesn't get it yet that going in the diaper/pull up is not the desirable way. Guess I need to try the panties and let her wet herself all day. Really gotta stay home if we're doing that! Ughhh! So was going to ask for advice, but did I answer my own question? Oh, but I must brag about this morning. She was helping me get dressed in clothes and a pull up (her, not me :-) and she looked a little funny. I said what's wrong and she said, go pee pee in potty huwy, huwy as she ran off for her bathroom. She had been about 15 minutes before and peed in potty, now having a little pee in pull up sat down and poo'd in the potty!!!! This was the first for brown! Yeah!!! Was so proud of her and she was pretty proud too! She waved bye, bye to it and ditched me in the stinky bathroom.
