It finally happened! While changing a super nasty diaper earlier this week, I asked Sophia if she would like to start going in the Big Girl Potty to which she shook her head "yes". I think the mere mention of the word "potty" insights excitement in her little soul simply because of the joy that getting to flush it brings her. So I tried not to get too excited by her quick compliance to "try it out". But, later that morning I put her on the potty and after reading several books together (including one about going potty that makes a flushing sound, so cool...where was this book in my formative years??)we finally had a tinkle! Mommy went "nuts"...there was dancing, cheering, singing, etc involved. I'm not even sure if Sophia realized what she had done or why I was so excited, but none the less, we reached a milestone.
Unfortunately, a few hours later, she was sitting on the potty, got off and scooted over to her room where she had a little surprise waiting for me behind the rocking chair. Guess we have a little more work to do.
