Potty Humor

We're in the wonderful process of potty training Maxwell...oh, the joy! We're pretty non-aggresive in our approach. I'd rather just fork over $13.79 for our big box of size 4 target brand diapers than have poop and pee on the floor and have fights over going to the potty. With Taylor, once she was ready and we got her a brand new pack of princess underwear; it seemed like we didn't have to do any training at all...it really was wonderful!

A few months ago I was on the phone and I went to check on Taylor and Max. They were in the bathroom and Taylor had Max on the little potty and had a slew of books lined up for him on the floor and had all his pullups lined up on the floor next to the books. I chuckled, walked away and came back in a few minutes later to see that the books and pullups had been picked up and Taylor was on the big potty, Max was on the little potty and they were having a nice little conversation with each other (I love it when they do that--it's too cute and funny!). On my third visit to check on them (just a few minutes later) Max was standing up, and Taylor was standing on a stepstool getting ready to clean out the 'bowl' of the little potty because Max had peed and POOPED in his potty for the first time ever! Needless to say, they both got a special treat and I was super impressed with both of them!

She's still working on him...GO Taylor!
