RACHEL PEED IN THE POTTY TONIGHT!
For the past couple of evenings, when we've gotten home and are getting ready to "wash hands," Rachel usually announces, "I wanna use the potty." She never actually pees or poops into it, she just pulls her pants down (I had to tell her that there's no need to actually take them off) and I take off her diaper (after the insists on doing it herself and then meekly accepts my help) and she sits on the potty...and sits...and talks, and kind of hangs out on the thing when she should really be relieving herself and then getting on with her life. It doesn't help that I plunk myself down next to her to keep her company. I think she thinks of the whole deal as a social event we do before washing hands and eating dinner.
Anyway.
Tonight I left her there because it was late (7:45 or so) and I needed to take off my jewelry and change clothes. All of a sudden I heard Rachel clop-clopping out of the bathroom looking for me, and I ran in and scolded her for getting off the potty and walking around, that you're not supposed to do that, and she started sobbing...and I looked into the potty and I saw pee! RACHEL HAD PEED IN THE POTTY!!
So I immediately hugged her and told her how proud I was of her and then I tried to call Drew (who somehow didn't get the voice mail message), and I hugged her and kissed her tears and told her again how proud I was of her and said, "RACHEL! YOU PEED IN THE POTTY!"
And her response, after peering at the evidence, was: "That's juice in there."
