So, now we get to experience the wonderful world of potty training with Wynken and Blynken.

Ugggh.

We finally mastered the complexities of "Pee Pee" in the potty. Although we thought it was understood that the toilet was a universal receptacle, Mssrs. Wynken and Blynken seem to think this is a no "poopie" zone.

We've even talked about it.

Me: What's that the (pointing to the toilet)
W & B: The Potty! (gleefully)
Me: And where do we "Pee Pee"?
W & B: The Potty! (again gleefully)
Me: And where do wee "Poopie"?
W&B: My Underwear!

oh i love your tales about your kids, Bob.....

god it seems like forever ago......but it was only a few years....when my lil miracle just refused to use the toilet......much preferred pooing in her diaper.....i think she liked squishing it....i'm not sure.....but her pediatrician told me not to fret.....so i didn't....just let her poo in her diaper....and unfortunately....that progressed to pooing other places......like behind chairs......and just leaving it there.....like i wouldn't notice.....lol......the worst was when i rounded the corner into her room.....and she sat there....diaper off.....matchbox cars in hand....driving her cars through the lil mess.....i don't think i've ever gagged as much as i did with that cleanup....i my Hoover steamvac....

Pooping followed a good 8 months after she decided to pee in the toilet. Furthermore, for 8 months we had to carry a certain stool to stand on and a certain pencil to hold or princess would not poop, UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCE !

phew!

How I look back on these days fondly. I can remember laughing so hard that I would just sit and cry from the sheer exhaustion and the look on his face. Oh, the horror of it all when his favorite teddy bear fell into the toilet when he let go of that cuddly bear to make sure his direction was aimed at the cotton ball that floated in the rippling water. lol

Once that was mastered there was no turning back. lol Although another lesson was quickly learned as well. Never bring your favorite teddy bear in with you for fear of the unspeakable act that could be repeated.

The rest is history...

They grow up so very fast - these are the days to remember and cherish.

I had a hard time trying to convince my first daughter to pooh in the potty. One day I was going through it again. "Pooh goes in the potty doesn't it." <silence> "Where does pooh go?"

"In the toy box."

"No it doesn't. It goes in the potty. Where does pooh go?"

"Toy box with Piglet and Tigger."

We started making progress after that day.

Disney has a lot to answer for.
