Everybody poops

I now have two, count 'em TWO, children who poop in the potty.

Yes, Emmie went poop in the potty last night. No, I am not kidding. Yes, she is indeed 14 months old. No, I am not the Potty Whisperer.

During her bath, Josh noticed she was getting a little red in the face and starting to stand up in the tub. Because this had happened to him before, and to me just a few days ago, he acted quickly and decisively. He picked her up -- sopping wet -- and put her on the potty. Where she continued what she tried to start in the tub.

Hooray Emmie! First poop in the potty!

Now, if we can only get her to climb up there herself and call us when she's done, we'll be in business.

that's awesome!! Ethan pooped on the potty once when he was like 18 months. Once.

I hope Emmie keeps it up!!!

nicely done! My 18 mo son was looking slightly interested in the potty yesterday after accompanying his sister on her trip so I though i would pick him up and see if he wanted to give it a shot. He promptly freaked out. so potty training is still a ways off for him (which I expected). girls are so much easier!

WTG, Emmie! And, WTG Josh for recognizing what was going on and averting a poop-in-the-tub crisis!

way to go Emmie! Jordyn is potty training and doing well with pee, but asks for a diaper to poop! Sound familiar?
