I know it sounds strange but up until about 3-3.5 I think they don't realise they have the ability to argue LOL! Paris and I went through a few rough weeks where she threw her weight around quite heavily. And whilst it was trying I just tried to remind myself that this too would pass. Its more like she's testing herself, trying new things etc. So long as your consistant she'll know soon enough that the same old rules apply. And in the meantime add a friend to speed dial that you can call when it gets the better of you for a 5 min time out... I find that keeps my cool and i'm able to stay focused on the job at hand. Rather than losing it then apologising and everything being a mess iykwim? She sounds like a beautiful little girl you've done a great job!
With the toilet thing Paris hated doing #2's as she hated having her bottom wiped and couldn't do it herself. She had a few accidents with number two as well, yet she was great with toilet training never had an accident overnight was dry very early on. Some kids have issues with number 2's'. But she eventually got the hang of it.
