Thanks for Going Potty With Me!

Okay, no picture right now for this one. Just a moment to post online that melted my heart. Lexi has been very interested in pottying lately and VERY interested in becoming a big girl. Everything she does she wants to do the big girl way and with as little help as possible. This week that has included wanting to wear pull-ups and big girl undies. So we are mildly working on it. She has gone in the potty off and on for a couple months.... if you catch her at that right time. But two days ago she asked to sit on it and after a lot of wiggling and goofing around she pooped. Yeah! Big dances and treats (including a shopping trip with MeeMaw and PaPaw for a pink pony and pink high heels shoes). Today she has peed on the potty more then not. We all get very excited and she gets her potty prizes each time. Very proud of her. That is how it should be, right? We are very proud of her!

But tonight... as I kiss her forhead as she lays in her bed, Lexi looked up at me and said "Thanks for going potty with me today, Mommy." She thanked me! Lexi has always had a knack at the thank you moments... "thanks for making me supper" or "thanks for my drink" or "thanks for taking me to the park." But to thank me for her success today. Blew my mind and melted my heart. Just a moment I wanted to share.

I'm sure we'll have potty photos soon enough!

Oh, by the way, according to Lexi her poopie has sparkles in it! Are you surprised? I'm not!
