Way off topic....but...

I'm just soooo excited, I had to share!!! My daughter, who just turned 2 in June, went pee on the potty all by herself!!! She took off her own diaper and went wee-wee, without any help from me.

We had been talking about the potty for a while now, but didn't really want to pressure as we've witnessed kids getting trained too young and then having potty issues later on.
Okay...so unless you're a Mom you probably wouldn't understand why this is so exciting and think I'm little odd to be so excited.

Fantastic!

My son (who is now 15) took forever to do everything! Walk, potty train, etc.
But he is a great guy now!

Wow, congratulations!!!

My first is 9 months -- time is flying, and before I know it, we'll be potty-training too.

I hear you on that...I NEVER in my life thought I'd be so happy seeing my kids potty on their own either, but I am!!!!

I don't have kids...yet. But that's great!!!! I'm happy for you and your daughter. I'm sure (not knowing from experience) that potty training is a great accomplishment.

So happy for ya!

That's awesome!!

Isn't it nice when they start to go on the potty, I find boys take the longest to train though. I can't wait until my youngest (and my last) little guy finally gets out of diapers, he's only 15 months old though, so I've got a little more time to wait!

My DH insists that diapers were soooo much easier than having to find a bathroom...He doesn't realize that when we were pregnant we KNEW where all the bathrooms are.
Congrats on your DD's accomplishment.

I think the flush gene is NOT in boys...........

my grand Miss Emma . potty trained herself........ I remember I trained my first boy,he trained his little sis....now that was a sight ,my 3rd was forced to train since she had chickenpox everywhere and I mean everywhere so could not wear a diaper and after the first "accident" almost lived in that bathroom.....and for the life of me............I cannot remember who trained my last boy. poor kid had to learn in a group no doubt.......... I do so miss those days of them all being home
