Though it all depends on when the 'being able to hold on' reflex kicks in I'm afraid - well that was my understanding when potty training my little ones. I guess you'll both know when it's right.<br /><br />Have fun,<br /><br />Nina xxx...Nina Nixon...https://www.blogger.com/profile/09778168901706224335noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5633102800810669383.post-44963562495294829192012-07-23T21:28:32.931+01:002012-07-23T21:28:32.931+01:00Hi Grace, she is a real cutie and I love to see my...Hi Grace, she is a real cutie and I love to see my grandchildren with grubby hands and faces, I always think it shows they are having a good, if messy, time. Not so sure their parents would agree though!! I always send them back much messier than they came!!<br />Not sure about the potty training because it was such a long time ago with my boys, but I think I remember when we were indoors just leaving them in a tee shirt and no pants or nappies but the potty strategically placed. I think we probably had a lot of wet carpets!Annehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00462752559193522943noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5633102800810669383.post-50968790358331932092012-07-23T20:51:41.021+01:002012-07-23T20:51:41.021+01:00I am grateful everyday that my little one is fully...I am grateful everyday that my little one is fully trained now.

Your daughter is so adorable - I'd love to be digging in to a pot of chocolate spread too, I was one of five so I know all about sharing!! Isn't it great that the weather has changed for the better at the start of the school hols? Usually it's the other way round. I always have to leave my house tidy and clean before I go away as I hate coming back to a messy house...Have a lovely summer break.

We'd had the potty in the bathroom and she'd been sitting on it at bath times and then I just took the nappies off one day and put her in knickers. We had a couple of accidents on the first day but by day 3 that was it and we've never looked back :) I was dreading it to be honest but it went really well, much to my relief! Good luck!<br />Victoria xxTangled Sweetpeahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01954038173137036350noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5633102800810669383.post-3086732424008556822012-07-22T22:49:09.778+01:002012-07-22T22:49:09.778+01:00Good luck Grace.
