When we were in Kansas for Thanksgiving at exactly 21 months old, Aria decided it was time to potty train herself! We had absolutely nothing to do with this. It wasn't even on our radar yet. But she just started heading into the bathroom saying, "Owie" and actually going. In fact her diaper stayed dry most of the week while we were there. And on the way home, she stayed dry for eight hours of our trip! When we got home we got some pull-ups so it would be easier for her to go, but we weren't really in a rush to get her in underwear. However, by the end of that week she started showing a little less interest. We thought we night be missing our window of opportunity so I took her on a little date to pick out big girl underwear.
She was very excited about this, although I'm not sure she had any idea what it was all about.
Little cutie.
The next afternoon we put her in underwear. In that first day and a half, after going for two weeks staying almost completely dry, she went through not one, not two, but all 21 pairs of new underwear! Oy. We knew she could do it so we decided to keep going. And the next day she was good! It just took one crazy day to get there. :-)
By the end of December she was even completely trained at night. You are a little super star Ari Girl. :-)
