I was awakened yesterday morning by a telephone call from Fly Girl, my daughter-in- law, who wanted to share news about "adventures in potty training" with my oldest grandson, who is now 2 and a half. He's apparently catching on quite quickly and was able to tell me in his sweet little toddler speak, "Poo-poo and pee-pee in the potty! Lollipops all gone!"
This translates to a very proud little boy telling his Nam Ma that he's going poo-poo and pee-pee in the potty so much that mom has now run out of lollipops that she was using as rewards!!! How's that for progress!!!
She decided to use fancy "big boy" underwear, decorated with graphics from the Cars movie, so he can feel the full effects of any accidents he may have.
And...there have been one or two...
The other day she said he came to her with his hands covered in poop, as if, "What do I do now?" There was poop on his face, tummy, back and legs and he was kind of upset. She grabbed him up, ran to the bathroom to put him in the tub and that's when she saw it in the potty chair!
A "man-handled" toddler poop.
He knew that he had an accident and that poo-poo goes in the potty!!!
So....he took it out of his big boy underpants and put it where it belongs!!
I swear, the kid's a genius!!
