Princess and the Potty

I just have to take a moment to brag on our blog...that's what this is for anyway, right?! Well, we bought our little sweetie a cute little potty since she has been pointing to her diaper so much lately. We had it for about five days but she was not a fan of it in the beginning (must be the ice cold seat on her little warm hiny). But just five days later, she was in our bathroom leaning against our potty and pointing to her diaper and saying her "uh, uh" words. So I asked her, "Do you need to go potty?" She shook her head yes, did a little jig with excitement, and headed to her potty. Now her potty is clear across the house in her bathroom. I figured before we could even get there, she would have caught her eye on the toy basket, her riding car or the remote control and completely forget about needing to use the potty. But she kept on going, straight to her bathroom. It took a minute to get her pants down and diaper off (no pull-up cause we just weren't expecting this) and though it had been several minutes since she mentioned she needed to go, she still went tee-tee in the potty! I may have frightened her a bit with all my excitement! We high-fived and fist-bumped to celebrate a little more! Yeah for our little 18 month old! She even did it a second time for her Dad to witness! We were just so proud of her! Sorry, no pictures with this one, a girl must have her privacy! :)
Now she doesn't seem to be a big fan of it after that day, so we are open to any suggestions you pro-moms might have to mastering potty training! Thanks so much!!
