can it be?

this morning when i woke up, leia was "leaky", so i changed her diaper, then i got her milk and had kaia & leia lay in bed with derek to watch Sesame Street while i went to run. about 25 minutes later, i go back into the room to hop in the shower & what do i see? derek fast asleep, kaia watching t.v. and leia laying on the bed with only her shirt on and her diaper on my pillow (good thing it was a new diaper)...she had taken in off! i was covered in sweat and wanting to do nothing but take a shower...but, i thought, "maybe she is over her diaper"...so, i ask her if she has to go potty & she shakes her head "yes". sure enough, i put her on the potty and... tinkle, tinkle we hear. she actually kind of told us she had to go potty and went! she looked so proud of herself. i was actually gonna get the little potty out next week after swim lessons are done, but, hey...if she wants to start a week early...fine with me! now, i just need to remember how to potty train a kid. lord help me. :)

That is awesome! When Kiara was potty training, we had "Potty Parties". I bought party hats and noise makers. Every time she went on the toilet and peed or pooped, we threw a potty party!
