End of the week update

Five steps forward, three steps back!
We made such great progress this week with potty training. Monday-Wednesday Ava went potty ALL day at school, and even after school at home. At night time, we reverted to diapers because I knew she would not wake to go potty. She did great Monday-Thursday at school. Then Thursday night she had an accident, followed by another accident, then it was time for bed.
Friday we tried again with underwear at school, success at school! Then threw a major temper tantrum leaving school, we had to go back in to use the potty. She then refused to go to the bathroom when asked for over an hour, she went to time out and had an accident.
Today- Saturday I probably did the wrong thing, but I stuck her in a pull up. Potty should not be a fight. I didn't want to risk an accident (especially on our couch, again!) if she threw a fit.
She does so good at school, at least with potty. I'm not sure what the deal is at home. And she refuses to sit on a big person potty, at all.

Hopefully soon we can get back on track.
Potty trained kids, are officially awesome! I hope she can avoid the attitude and get back with the program.
Her attitude, is up and down. Not sure if we did something wrong, or if she's teething again (she's been chewing on her fingers and drooling a whole bunch).

Today we had a fun outing with "Cereal" aka Cheryl and Addison.
Ava and Addison had such a fun time, and us grown up girls did too!

Tonight Ava and her daddy are going on a date. Daddy is getting pizza for Ava! So happy for the two of them venturing out to do something fun.
