E pooped in the potty this evening!
This is a great day. It's strange to think such a mundane activity as taking a dump could cause such excitement but it has, in me at least. He seemed rather unimpressed. He was more interested in showing me that he knew the difference between Blue and Yellow in his Winnie the Pooh book about colors. This impressed the hell out of me as well because just a couple of days ago he wasn't able to match the sound button with the picture of the button in the book.
I know he is a long way from being potty trained and that there will be set backs and misses but this is the first time he has actually made a deposit so to speak. The teachers at daycaare have been working on potty training since he was transfered to the toddler room 4 months ago. "Working with" means making the potty available and making a BIG DEAL out of anyone using the bathroom. Even the teacher gets a round of applause when she flushes.
One evening about a month ago E did a wonderful Red Hot Chili Peppers impersonation (I think it was when they were promoting Blood Sugar Sex Magik). Wearing only socks and sandles he leaned over his potty looking all the world like Anthony Keidis about to be frisked by the cops and began making pissing sounds. PSSSssss PSSSssss PSSSsss. His teacher told me she makes that sound when they are attempting to use the potty so they know what it's supposed to sound like.
Well must go clean the potty :D
