Back in October I wrote a post<\/a> about Mikayla going "poo poo" in the potty for the first time and getting an ice cream cone all of her own.  From that point on we never really tried to potty train Mikayla, but at the same time we never discouraged it either.  If she wanted to sit on the potty we let her.  If we noticed she was looking like she needed to go, we ran to the bathroom.  We hadn’t even purchased big girl underwear yet.<\/p>\n

Well, last weekend (right before our whirlwind of Christmas traveling began), Mikayla decided she wanted to be potty trained.  On Saturday and Sunday she didn’t have an accident in her diaper except when she was sleeping.  We were so proud of her, but didn’t think much of it because we assumed when traveling she would have more accidents.  She proved us wrong in a big way!  Over the course of the next 7-8 she only had a couple of accidents, even on the road.  When we finally returned from our traveling we tried her big girl underwear that were in her stocking.  She loved her "panties" and even got a little upset when we put a diaper on her at nap and night time.  For three days now (cross our fingers and knock on wood) she hasn’t had an accident in her big girl underwear!  What a big girl she is!  We are still using diapers at nap and night time, but the rest of the day she is is underwear.<\/p>\n

This potty training thing is nothing we did, she just woke up one morning and decided she didn’t want to go to the bathroom on herself anymore.  Like I said, accidental potty training!<\/p>\n
