Let the Potty Training Begin!

So lately the girls have been very aware of their diapers, pulling on them when they are wet or dirty, and telling me "poo-poo, mama!". So we figured it might be time to introduce a Big Girl Potty. I don't at all expect them to be fully potty-trained for a long time, but wanted to at least familiarize themselves with the routine and talk about it with them every day.
We bought two potties last Sunday (yes, of course we had to buy TWO - would it be any other way??), and let them play with them for a bit in the living room so they wouldn't be scared of it. (No we're not leaving toilets in our living room - they're now located in our bathroom)

Here's some pictures, please excuse my children's hair - they had just woken up from a nap.

"Hmmmmm...."

"these must be our new toys!!!"


And after about 5 minutes, they were really only interested in the boxes. It's sure to be a long and slow process, but we'll get there!
