Despite the fact that Clara clearly--clearly--does not have the timing down for peeing in the potty, she has now pooped on not only the potty at school, but also the potty at home! And--AND!--she did so after realizing she needed to do it, and getting herself there in time. Tonight, after bath, she was tearing about like a wild thing. Ted and Joe headed outside to water the tomatoes and carrot and marigold seeds they planted a few weeks ago and Julie stayed inside to continue ignoring Clara's antics. No sooner had Julie ostentatiously settled down with the latest issue of the Northwestern alumni magazine than Clara announced "I poop." Julie said, "You poop?! Well, let's go! Let's get in there!" Birdie was kinda of making to squat all "I gots to go! I just do it here!" No. Birdie got there, sat down, and pooped a healthy amount. We mention this last so that you know, Readers, this was no toot or dribble. This was the real deal. Julie naturally made a big fuss, but Birdie just looked at her with that "I'm pooping" grimace.
Afterward, it was hugs all around, before the indignity and ordeal of the pink eye drops administration. But then Birdie was carted outside to share her big news with the Boys, and got two high fives from her brother for her number two, in. The. Pot-TY!

Way to go Clara!!! She's such a big girl now:)
ReplyDeleteBetsy was very resistant to pooping on the potty. Did it once and thought that was it. Problem was she didn't poop anywhere else either. Got a little backed up, so we went to Dr. Blumer and he prescribed suppositories. Only had to use one. Betsy said "Not the butt medicine!" and proceeded to poop on the potty from that day to this.
