last night was a big night for dahlia.... she finally went poop in the toilet!!

she has been potty trained for a long time now, but for some reason couldnt do the pooping thing. we always had to put a diaper on her. she would freak out when we put her on the toilet. i didnt want to traumatize her and figured she would just do it eventually, so we never forced her. but yesterday i was to my limits, and couldnt handle it anymore. it is so nasty changing a three year old diaper! and a waste of money! so i told her sorry no more diapers, if you need to poop tonight we will go sit on the toilet. and eventually (six hours of holding it in) she went! justin and i both screamed when it happened because we were excited and trying to give her encouragement, but i think that startled her and she started crying! it was funny.

so we have been bribing her with anything and everything and she didnt even care. last night the final thing we offered was ice cream and that is what she got. she has never had it before. it was too cold for her but she still thought it was yummy.... of course(: oh and daddy promised to take her to the toy store and pick out anything she wanted.... i think it is more for him though (: he likes the toy store!
