Sweet Success

I'm not sure what to think about all of the bathroom talk around here lately...I guess it's just a reflection of my exciting life.

So, to round out the potty talk, here's one more story. Last night Mark and Audrey were here for a visit. We were all out on the patio finishing up dinner when Alex and Erica went inside. A few minutes later, they both came running back outside in a flurry of excitement. Erica came with her underwear around her ankles shouting, "I pooped, I pooped!" Alex followed closely behind carrying the potty chair and adding, "She pooped in the potty chair!" Oh lordy, sweet success (although it did not smell all that sweet). I am a bit embarrassed to admit that I got up off my chair and started jumping up and down, clapping and shouting, "You did it, you did it!" A true moment of parenting pride.

And, no accidents today either. So, I think it's safe to say we've made it over the potty training hump. I am nearly ready to declare this week's potty party a success. And, there are still a few M'n'Ms in the bag.
