All things potty...

So we just got back from our night away and Tegan has been in diapers the entire time. I think the break was good because she is interested in all things potty again. On Friday she got mad and threw her potty books if I even suggested them as reading material! We have a couple home from the library and Tegan really likes "The Big Potty Book" and "You Can Go To The Potty" by Dr. Sears. Tonight she specifically chose those as her books to read and we watched "Once upon a Potty for her" a DVD based on the bestselling book.  Its a short 6 minutes video explaining the potty process and then a 5 minute music video called the potty song...which I will now be singing for the rest of the night.

Then we *tried* to put her to bed. As soon as we got her in her crib and sat back down on the couch she started shouting. "I Pee-Pee.....I Poo! I Pee-Pee....I Poo" over and over non-stop. So after a quick rock/paper/scissors it was determined that I would go in and check on her. I checked her diaper and she was dry. So I put her back, but she kept grabbing her crotch dancing around and saying the same thing. So I got her up and she wanted to sit on the toilet ring on the toilet not on her potty. After a couple minutes and no pee or poo she got up and wanted to play. Actually she wanted to cause mayhem. She poured a glass of water on herself and then picked food out of the garbage and started to eat it. We soon wrestled her back to bed.  Has she really got it figured out that by stating she has to go the washroom she can get out of bed time!!
