Can you guess why this chica is eating an ice cream cone all of her own?

Want some help?  Well, let me spill the beans on this celebratory ice cream.  My 17 month old went "poo poo" in the potty today!  Such a big step deserved an amazing treat like mint chocolate chip ice cream!  We aren’t officially potty training, but we aren’t discouraging the use of the potty either.  She acts interested in the potty when we go, so we bought her a potty seat and occasionally sit her on it.  Today she came up to me and was farting. Then she said "poo poo", so I took her into the potty and sat her down with her book (already in her hands).  She sat there and while reading her book she went "poo poo" in the potty.  We were such proud parents!

    That’s fantastic!!! For most kids #2 is the big challenge. Maddy was the same as Mikayla. She’s been pooping in the potty like a champ for several months. The next challenge is getting her to realize when its time for #1 when she’s busy playing. Keep up the good work!! Sounds like she’ll get the hang of it pretty quickly!!!
