Once in awhile, she uses the potty. Its a big exciting party every time she goes! Because for the most part, Lil is still fairly stubborn about this. But more and more often, she is telling me when she has to go, and is willing to try it out…as long as SHE is the one who brings it up. If the potty is ever suggested by me, it is met with very much resistance (this is a recurring theme).
Today something rather exciting happened. For the first time, Lilah successfully used the potty at a restaurant, and by her own request! Our playgroup met over dim sum in Chinatown, for a change of pace. Lil sat next to her BFF Indie, who requested to use the potty. When her mom brought her to the restroom, Lilah requested the same. I figured she just wanted to go hang with Indie so I said, lets wait till they come back, then we’ll go. Minutes later when they returned, Lil immediately asked to go again, so I took her seriously and brought her. She let me place her on the big potty and.. she went. Yay!
It was a little funny that, as I was carrying her all the way to the restroom in the back of the restaurant, dodging dim sum carts and navigating through the maze of full tables, Lilah was yelling “I love to go pee pee! I love to go pee pee!”
Ah, parenting.
