IT happens

This evening after dinner, Evs said go poo poo. We haven't been seriously pushing the potty chair use, and will randomly ask her if she wants to sit on her elmo potty chair. Sometimes she says no, sometimes she quickly sits on it, sometimes she toots on it, then quickly looks to see what was left in the potty, and sometimes she sits on it and dinks around. Well tonight she said go poo poo. Figured since it was 74 degrees in the house, she could go diaper less for a bit, and we would casually focus on getting her to the potty if she brought it up. She kept bringing it up, and we kept going into the bathroom.  A special chocolate chip cookie was used as a reward if she went(yes bribery was used as an incentive ;) ) For a while it was all of the above mentioned shenanigans, but after about the 3,5, or 7 time(I lost count), IT happened!!!! Poop in the elmo potty. OH MY GOODNESS, we all were shocked, and Evs was a bit sheepish to show off her deposit. We hooted, hollered, and finally she she showed us her big poopie in the potty. As we gawked at our child's poo, she quickly reminded us of the chocolate chip cookie that was due to her. Daddy eagerly rewarded her efforts, as mommy cleaned her up. *Note to self:keep wet wipes in the bathroom. Cleaning up poo in squishy cheekies isn't so easy ;)* 

The rest of the night we celebrated with knuckles, high fives, dancing, and cheering. So incredibly proud of our little girl!! Even when feeling under the weather, she is still a determined girl on a mission! Hopefully today, we made some positive strides in the potty training department!
