She's something else alright...

Earlier today, I sent Ali potty. She's been good about staying dry, but hasn't quite made it into the habit mode. She was excited about "using the Bigs' potty." After a few minutes, I noticed how quiet she had gotten and then heard squeals of delight. Oh. NO! She had filled the sink of (and no, it doesn't have the emergency drainage holes that keep it from overflowing) and was playing. She was soaked- hair, face, clothes, etc. Water on the floor. Absolutely tickled with herself. Breathe in. She's 3. Breathe out. She's 3. This too shall pass.

Now, it's 11:25pm. My sweet girl just got up because she needed to go potty! Could this be a step toward night training? The other 2 were night trained right away, so this has been a whole new thing...

Sounds like Ali's on the right track! Yay!
