A potty story...

This is a funny story that I'm sure several of you can relate to...

For the past several months I have been working with Abby on her potty training. We've had very little success and once we moved we hit a wall. She refused to cooperate and I just gave up for a while. I knew this move was a transition for all of us so I knew I should probably wait until we finally settled into our new surroundings. Besides, trying to potty train in a hotel room was not my idea of fun.

Well last week I made a point of giving it a go again and get this girl potty trained!!! Since it was Spring Break and we had no special plans I knew this would be the time! She had several accidents the first few days but as we progressed she did better.

She went to school on Tuesday with her "big girl panties" on!! She was so excited and I wanted her to have a great day...accident free. She did well and only had two small accidents...once on the playground and she didn't make to the potty in time after her nap. But she did go! Which was SUPER!

Yesterday we had success as well! She told me when she need to go and went. I was so proud of her!

Today at school she was accident free!!!! WAHOO! She was so happy when I picked her up and she told me she went to the potty several times. What a great feeling for me knowing that she was so happy for herself!

My funny moment starts now...:)

Yesterday was our first "poop" incident. Yep, you know where I'm going with this.

I had to go downstairs to get some more toilet paper for Abby's bathroom. I told her that I'd be right back while she sat watching a movie on TV. I wasn't gone but maybe a minute and when I came back up she was already in her bathroom.

She was "looking" at what she was doing then would stare at me. She told me, "mom there's dirt in there!" (haha) I told her, "No, you're pooping Abby! That's great! Keep going!" I think she was a bit scared but she finished and hopped off the toilet. I gave her a big hug and she was so excited that she said, "Yay, I made chocolate mommy!!" I about died from laughter!

Now this is a story that I will never forget!
