We have come to the next stage in our little toddler's life. Pooping in the potty! Now I knew that his daycare nanny had been working with him; running to the bathroom when he's about to poop but I honestly didn't know what to expect at home.
Tonight, after eating dinner and even playing a little outside, we ended up in the living room to just chill. Then all of a sudden, Gavin walks toward me in a "I gotta pee" stance. I asked, "Do you have to go potty?" He nodded his head and I suggested that we go to the bathroom. He booked it to our destination and started yelling, "Bathroom!" as he stood by the toilet. I took off his diaper and held him on the toilet with both hands while Eric was standing in the doorway. Nothing happened. I looked at Gavin and said, "Do you have to poopy?" He didn't say anything. Then I heard it....the sound of poop coming out of a butt then the "ker-plunking" of the dookie(s) in the toilet! I couldn't believe it! I praised him while still holding him with two hands and then I realized that I had to wipe him. Eric came over (me begging him to hold his child on the toilet as he was trying not to gag!) so I could clean his butt. We ended up just starting a bath for Gavin soon after because it was indeed bathtime. However, Gavin was apparently not done because he stuck out his pelvis and watched a stream of urine hit the floor. Hey....we're almost there! :)
