Today we went to eat at Fire Mountain and during our meal Katarina said that she needed to use the potty. That is great-she recognised it before she went and off we were to the restroom. She sat on the potty (I know you all are so excited to read about this.....)and did her buisness.........so far so good one happy kid and a happy mommy......what could be the problem? Well, all of the sudden she mooved around just a little bit and here it comes-the loud noise-the rushing water-the panic-the crying-the fear! That is right you have guessed it.... The toilet flushed itself (very loudly must I reiterate) while she was sitting on it. Gggrrrrrrr. Right then and there I wanted to go find the person who invented automatic flushing toilets and punch him or her right in the nose!
Thankfully as the day progressed we went to my father-in-law's house and I was able to get her back on the potty and she seems to be okay, but she did tell me "Mommy, don't let the potty flush until I tell it to!"
So if any of you decide to open up a buisness or restaurant, please do all of us potty-training parents a favor and get the cheap toilets we have to flush ourselves.

I'm facing the challenge that is potty training. Note to self: avoid auto-flush toilets! Good luck and Godspeed.
ReplyDeleteMy nephew is so proud of his new found potty prowess and makes my sister look in the bowl every time. No flushing until all the world can see.

ReplyDeleteVery funny story, altough you might not have thought so at the time. I feel for you though, we're working on our eldest at the moment and it's quite a struggle. Michele sent me.
ReplyDeleteOh, and those things splash too! She probably was splashed on her little bottom!
ReplyDeletethat must've scared the poop out of her.
ReplyDelete~michele told me to say it.
I know exactly what you mean about those automatic flushing toilets. I think it's a common pet peeve of many potty-training moms. A fellow MOPS mom suggested covering the sensors with those sticky post-its to make sure they don't flush before dear little princess is done.
ReplyDeleteI can already see the therapy coming... lol
ReplyDeleteGood luck on the potty training !
Michele sent me. Have a great weekend !
I've heard a lot of kids are freaked out by the automatic toilets. My 5 yr old son never cared. My 2 yr old is in the process of training right now, we're not at the public arena yet, so we'll have to see how he does with those.
