potty talk

And just like that she is potty trained!


I'm a big girl now!
(is it weird that I took photo's of her on the potty?)

So proud of my big girl!

I knew that when she was ready it would click.

Some afternoons we would put on her big girl "underwears" and she would sit on the potty and try to go.

She would never actually go but she would sit there and try.

I never pushed it.

If she wanted to do it we would, if not we wouldn't.

It wasn't until a couple of days ago when she accidentally went on the floor a few times and had that uncomfortable wet feeling. She was really upset about it, even though I assured her that it was not a problem and this is how you learn.

All of a sudden things clicked and now when she feels like she has to go she tells me "mommy i pee potty" and we run like the wind and she sits on the potty.

It is awesome.

She learned on the big potty with a little trainer seat on it.

No messy cleaning up of a little potty, just flush and go. Love that!

Ever since it clicked she has not had an accident and she even goes number two on the potty. I have heard that some kids will hold number two's until they have a pull up or a night time diaper on. I didn't know how Sophia would be about it. Apparently it's not a problem for her. So happy!

(Don't you love that I am talking about going number two?)

Today we went out and bought her new big girl underwear with Strawberry Shortcake and My little Pony on them. How fun is that? She even let me know while we were shopping that she had to go and she went with no fuss in a gross public washroom.

She is awesome.

Potty trained!

Unfortunately, I cannot tell you how old you were exactly when this amazing ability came in to your life. Thank the Lord for Blogmeisters who record these milestones with words and pictures. I just want to hug Sophia so badly. Kisses from Grama Linda and congratulations to my Rock Star Grandaughter.
P.S. Love your music
