So day 3 of potty training.
I push the drinks of water, orange juice, milk. Whatever. She holds it all morning long. We are on the potty every 15-30 minutes. She pees on the floor in the basement. (pergo so big deal).
Last night while I am getting Max out of the tub she hops on the toilet and makes a download. My head nearly came off I was so excited. So she won't pee on the potty but she will do the other stuff.
Or will she?
Around 11:00 she starts telling me she is reedy reedy sweepy. I tell her to wait and we will put on a pull up and take a nap. About a half and hour later she wants a diaper please. I tell her we don't have any more diapers but when she is ready for a nap we will put the pull up on. She says ok and slumps up the stairs. I'm thinking I have mutiny on my hands. I am expecting to see her in a pull up with no intention of taking a nap.
She comes down and shows the poop on her hands. She says she had a reedy reedy big poop. I ask her where she put it. She says ehm, I don't know. I go upstairs to investigate. I see a poop in the toilet (which can be misleading because Abbie is anti-flush but that's another post for another day.) I ask if she put in in the potty. She says, ehm, Yeah. I take her word for it, flush it, but notice it still sort of smells wrong. I take my carpet cleaner and get ready for the prize. Can't find it. More congratulating Amelia and so on.
Its bedtime and I take her upstairs for a nap. Noticing the smell again, I say how bout you show me where you did the really really big poop. She says, ehm, right there (pointing to Abbie's slippers). I take a peak. Sure enough.
Really really big poop. In Abbie's slipper.
So, please don't leave your shoes lying around.

Producer: What's your kid's talent?
Mother of Geese: She can aim and poop in a small slipper.
Producer: Oh, that's good.
Oh, and the house thing? You're amazing for offering that. Really. You don't even know me. What if I'm a psychopath or something? I promise I'm not though. I cross my heart.
I'm still debating. Me thinks I might take my hubby up on the offer of driving me up just so I don't have to bring the baby with me. It just sounds so much more fun without chasing her around!
That is so funny! I'm with Celia, how did she aim so well? That takes some serious skills.
Hang in there.
Love,
