Potty Training!

So we have started the Potty training full force this past week with Haley! She is actually doing really good, but I must say that it takes a lot of patience to potty train! She has got peeing in the potty down - she has done really well with it - but as far as pooping goes, well lets just say we have not had success yet!
The other day she went poop in her panties and then tried to clean it up herself! When she came out into the kitchen and showed Scott the poop in her hands, he about hurled right there. I was downstairs and I hear Scott yelling at me, "Amelia... I need some HELP up here!" Right then I knew it was a potty training incident, but little did I know what I would come up to find. Haley had fortunately went into the bathroom before she tried to clean it up, but there was poop all over the floor and toilet and her! It was disgusting! So.. I started the bath Scott and I cleaned up the poop, and within about 5 minutes, she started screaming and saying "scared of poop"! Yes, thats right she pooped in the bathtub! By this time you could say that my patience was about gone! And yet I did what I had to do, cleaned the bathtub, and washed my daughter off for the second time. We still have not had success with actually making the poop in the potty, but at least I've always been there when she goes in her panties, or pull up!
Oh the joys!!!

This just reinforces that although Cameron is interested in the potty, I'm not ready to start the adventure yet. It's crazy to think she's so big. I love that whenever Haley does something that requires cleaning up, she does it herself... puking, pooping...
