We have been trying to potty train Gail for about a month now. She has been doing okay, she goes here and there on the potty. We figure she should be much easier being the second child and being a girl. I'm sure it isn't going to take as long as it took Carter to learn, well, I hope it doesn't. It took Carter about a year and a half (we did take a few months off during that time due to having Gail and moving) to finally be completely trained. We thought it would never happen, it was starting to look hopeless. We were so happy when he finally started telling us that he had to go potty. That was a day to mark down in the books! Hopefully she will pick it up fast. She has picked up a lot of other things really fast. She is lacking a little speech wise. We are able to understand a few things now. Frank says that either she is saying more words or we are just finally able to figure out what she is trying to say. That could be true.
