So....in Sept we got another potty out to set in the kitchen to see how interested Alayna might be. With Grant - we set his potty in the kitchen so it was sorta "in his face" all the time and might increase his curiosity and interest. Anyway - we decided to do the same with Alayna.
She has sat on the potty a number of times - even before this - but we've really had no "successes" so far. A couple "successes" by accident - but anyway...
One day I was going to be working in the kitchen so Alayna was hanging out with me and I asked her if she wanted to go potty. She thought that would be a fun idea - so we stripped her down and she sat. Well she doesn't "sit" very long so I thought - she'd sit longer if she had a snack. Anyway - Alayna's sitting on the potty having her snack (occasionally "pushing" with nothing coming out). I left the kitchen to bring something to Grant in the living room. I'm standing in the living room and I hear Alayna coming behind me. I've reminded myself by this time that I had to get her back to the kitchen floor b/c she was naked. Just then I hear the sounds of tinkling in a cup. Yup - you read that right. I don't know how she did it, but in the EMPTY snack bowl she had in her hand...she pee'd. It was like she was holding it next to her and SOMEHOW the pee ended up in the bowl.
Alayna "pushing"
Well - I turn and see this happening, grab her and run to the potty. By this time she is a bit freaked and wants nothing to do with actually sitting on the potty anymore. Well - I decide to check out the damage to the living room floor. I kid you not - there were not 2 drops of pee on the floor. How crazy is this? Anyway - sorryI had to tell this story here - but I have to make sure I remember it. The picture below prooves my story :) (sorta)
