Poopin in the Potty

This might be a little late, but Little Colin is officially potty trained. A few weeks back, Lisa found 3 days of no plans and decided to do a 3 day potty training boot camp. She set up shop in the kitchen (Tile floors) with Colin in big boy undies and proceeded spend the next 3 days potty training. And it seems to have worked. It took more than 3 days, but he hasn't been in a diaper since and uses the potty (with the occasional accident).

Since Mommy was teaching him, he pees sitting down and now I am teaching him to pee standing up. He seems to like it better although he needs a stool since he isn't tall enough.

The other day pee'd standing up and then he told Lisa "I want to poop standing". After Lisa stopped laughing, she explained to him that everyone poops sitting down.

Lisa has also created a monster. To help him with pooping on the potty, she would try to make it fun and they would laugh when he tooted on the potty. So now he thinks it is hilarious and laughs out of control when he toots. I had to write this down so that in future years when he thinks it is funny to toot, I have written evidence that I was not the one to teach it to him, but his mother did. Sorry future daughter-in-law.
