Payton has been potty trained for about 1 year now, but she is still occasionally having accidents. Not every day but about every two weeks. And the bad part about it is she doesn't just have one accident, she will have three in one day!
I have tried rewards, punishments---everything!
I think she is just being lazy. She gets so preoccupied with whatever else is going on that she doesn't want to stop to go to the bathroom until it is too late.
Here is a picture of her in the gym with some of my volleyball players the other day. She had wet her pants three times and we didn't have any more clean clothes for her to wear, so she is wearing PE clothes from one of the smaller middle school girls and we had to wrap the draw string around her neck to keep the pants up.

Ha! LOL!
Have you tried a sticker chart?? My kids go banana sandwich over getting stickers on their chart. It's just a piece of paper on the frige with their name on it, and they get a sticker for doing good stuff (unloading the dishwasher, cleaning their room, being nice, staying in their own bed all night, STAYING DRY ALL DAY,etc). Then when they get 10 stickers, they get $1. They think it's freaking awesome to get stickers for money so they can go buy crap they want at the store.
Also works well for discipline....Quit fighting or I'll take a sticker off your chart! Etc.
Try it. I was skeptical at first, but stickers are a BIG DEAL around our house. :)
Ginny,
Ainsley was doing that. I started washing her off with cold water in the shower everytime. She has only had about 3 single accidents since I started doing that. I just tell her we have to wash it off and that she needs to stop playing as soon as she feels like she has to go.
