I cannot believe I forgot to mention this key milestone that we have come to as parents...we are done with diapers!!!!!!!!! I have been waiting for this day for 7 years. Not for one kid. Technically, Meli still uses pull-ups at night (against her wishes) but I do not think she will have to do that much longer.
We were so fortunate with our potty training. We really did not have any issues. The reason for that could be that we waited until the kids told us they were ready. We were very relaxed about the whole process, honestly, because I just had no interest in forcing it and stressing out about it.
We waited until Colin was three, but he learned very quickly. Meli took a little longer to get interested. At first, I did try to push it more than usual but that was going no where. So, I backed off and a week or so later she asked to wear panties. Then it was pretty quick. She did have a little trouble with number 2, but it was more of an issue knowing when she needed to.
I am so proud of her! This was probably 4 or 5 months ago. It is just so nice not having to pack a bag of items every time we go somewhere.
