That is what we have had around here lately!
Georgia is in the stage of taking off her diaper/pants/shoes/socks/shirt/bow..you name it..it comes off something throughout the day!
Emma was using a training potty in her room and would go without letting us know, so there would be a full potty and I would never be the wiser...Oh, not until Georgia would be playing in her sister's room and Emma would start yelling, "Georgia a mess!!"
Yes, she was a mess.. she was playing with urine and feces..and I don't even want to think about where her hands went soon after! Emma hit the nail on the head when she said, "Georgia a dirty girl" So Emma's potty WAS in her room and is now retired.
It was another beautiful fall day here so off to the park the girls and I went. I was on the phone with a friend and the girls were running about playing. I said outloud, "I need to find Emma..where is she?" Then I look over the slide and there she is on the other side of the playground with her pants pulled down to her ankles going potty. I squealed and then said,
"Oh no, gotta go Emma is peeing..I hope!"
I grab Georgia cause I didn't want to leave her on the other side where I couldn't see her..I see parents laughing, kids pointing and saying, "why is that girl naked, Mom?"
I run over to her..with a serious silent prayer, "Please don't let her be going poop, PLEASE!" You see, I am known as never fully prepared..my diaper bag is usually missing some essential item..but today..I was really unprepared!!
I had picked up Emma from MDO and on a whim went to Sonic and the park because of how great the weather was...no diaper bag, nothing in my car to help out!
Luckily, (and I like to believe it was due to my furious praying) she was only going pee-pee. So I get to her and tell her that she is not supposed to use the restroom in public and that she needs to tell Mommy when she needs to go, etc...
I was laughing (because I guess that is my embarrassment defense mechanism) and Emma thought it was funny, so she RUNS from me...with her pants and "wonderwear" dangling around her ankles..laughing and smiling too.
I finally had to get serious and another mom came to corner her in to help me wrangle my pantsless child. She was nice and claimed she understood. Not sure if I really believed her, but it was nice of her to say!
