Potty Tales

So, DD2 is being potty trained right now. I started several months ago but *I* got lazy and did not follow through so we're doing it all over again. Yeah, fun! LOL!
Anyway, so last Saturday, she decided that she could change herself...on her own... after having a BM! UGH! You can kinda get the picture - after going in her pull-ups, she changes herself and puts on new pull-ups. She even throws the dirty one in the diaper pail. Good intentions for sure, except that she gave me more work with the mess that was made in her room. Double Yuck!
Then...
Me: Don't change yourself when you have poo-poo, ok? Tell Mommy or Daddy so we can change you.
DD2: Why? Me big girl.
ME: Well, only grown-ups can change you so you don't make a mess.
DD2: Why?
ME: Because you can't reach to wipe yourself yet.
DD2: Me do it! Me big girl!
ME: I know sweetie. When you go to the potty, you can help wipe. But when you go on your pull-ups, you let me wipe, ok?
DD2: Ok. Me big girl!
