Bleghck…. Hurray! September 25, 2008

Alright, I’m going to have to add a picture of my big girl  later, but I just had to share this.  While Lily was taking her second bath of the morning (she likes water- a lot) I was in the kitchen cooking some eggs for her and Elena.   After a couple minutes Lily came up, trying to hold a towel around herself, along with a wet washcloth, and a toy or two.  She was telling me she was cold “Ho- hhhooo!” and shaking to show me.  She came to stand by me while I finished, then all of a sudden she goes “bleghck!  Yeck! bleghghgh.”  I look down, and sure enough, she’s left a little…something on the floor.  I said something like “yeah that is yucky! That’s why we do that on the potty, let’s run in the bathroom,  hurry!”   We ran in the bathroom, and I couldn’t find all of her potty- (the most important part was missing-the bowl) So I just grabbed the seat and stuck it on the toilet She sat down and much to my surprise, when I got back a minute later from cleaning the floor-  she had finished her job in the toilet!  Hurrah!!!! So I made a big deal of her doing poo-poos on the toilet and gave her a little cup of marshmallows. She was VERY proud of herself, even if she didn’t comletely understand it.  I know it was mostly luck and timing, but she did know enough to stop and hold it until she got on the toilet.  Yay for  Lily!!!  Hurrah!
