#2 on the lue!!

So Aliya went #2 tonight on the potty!! She hadn't gone #2 in 3 days and I was staring to get worried, she has really routine bowls and her not going is not usual. The last time she had a BM she went in her panties and it was a bit of a mess, so I had to wonder if her being in panties all day was "forcing" her to hold it in fear of going in her panties again? I had planned to put her in a diaper when we got home this evening in hopes that she would feel like going. But when we got home, she refused to put a diaper on. So I reminded her that if she had to go poopy, she needed to sit on the potty. About 20 minutes later she got "the look" in her eye. She quickly started up the stair and I reminded her not to poop in her panties. She went straight for her pull ups. I told her pull ups were too messy for poopy and pulled out a diaper. She looked at me and said, "no mommy potty training"! It was so cute I had to cover my face to hide my chuckles. She went from the bathroom (on her Dora potty seat on the toilet) to her little potty in our bedroom, back to her Dora seat, back to her little potty. She knew she had to go, she just didn't know what to do. I could see the fear in her eyes, she had no idea what to do. I again asked her if she wanted a diaper "no mommy". Then with one final sit on the little potty she white knuckled the sides and curled her little toes and the next thing I know I hear "plop". She stands up and looks in the little hole and turns to me and says, "I did it mommy, big poop!". We did the BIGGEST potty dance ever!!!! I was so proud!

I have to say, our little Aliya is such a potty rock star! I can't believe how well she is doing! (I knock on wood as I type this)
