I will go into more detail later on our potty training/potty progress. But here is a quick story for you. I took Chloe to Target all by herself to pick out her own undies. And surprise surprise she picked the Elmo ones. She had been pretty consistent with the peepee in the potty, but kept messing her pants. So we made a big deal about keeping Elmo "clean." A few hours later, she pooped in the Elmo underpants. Daddy said in a very calm, soft voice "oh no honey, you pooped on Elmo." As soon as he got those words out of his mouth Chloe's jaw dropped and she burst into tears. (Like my dog just got run over by a car tears). We tried everything, we couldn't calm her down. Poor little thing was completely hysterical for about 30 minutes. How did we get her to stop? We had to turn on the t.v. and show her that Elmo was indeed alive and well. She took one look at Elmo on the tv, got a huge smile on her face and said..."Elmo all better." Needless to say, she hasn't made that mistake again!
Here's our little spaz picking out her own undies(Taylor was away at Grandmas potty camp).

HA! Poor Chloe! How traumatic . . .
Josie has those same pack o' undies. From Target. . .
That's soooo funny, and kind of sad at the same time!! Oh and Umm, you have a 2 story Target?? I'm super jealous!
omg,I'm laughing till i'm in tears! How sweet is that?! Chloe & Elmo what a team. Frankly all your kids are adorable, Taylor is so charming and Coby, love the previous pic with his hair standing up. You've got an amazing troop of kids there.
That story is a hoot! I mean, poor Chloe, but it's so funny!
I tried that same thing with Thomas/Mickey Mouse and CARS (all of whom Jack ADORES) and he so did not care...lol
Can I send Jack to your Grandma potty camp? Or just over there for a few days, sounds like a great break....lol
