Zane has expressed an interest in the potty a number of times. I'm in no hurry though. But on Wednesday, November 14, Zane undressed and came over to me mumbling something about the potty. I asked if he wanted to try and go and he answered yes.
He scurried to the potty and pushed out a toot. I praised him and he got down. But after taking a step away, he stopped and looked back. I asked if he wanted to try again. He nodded yes. This time I lifted and placed him on the seat. I stepped back into the kitchen to get the camera, only because I thought it would be cute to document his effort, and when I returned, he was peering into the potty and saying "Ere it is. Poot!"
It took a second for me to realize the little guy really did poop in the potty! What a big boy!!! And again, so out of the box -- isn't it usually peeing in the potty that kids take to first?! Whatever or however, our little guy is determined to do it even if I'm not ready. We'll cater to his requests, but I don't expect mastery by any means.
Right now I'm just so proud of our little potty pooper!!
