I poop!

Yesterday Miles made his first action on the potty, and it was a #2!

He told Kyle and I that he had to poop, but he jokes all he time about his bathroom needs that we just thought he was playing around, and then he said it again... "I poop".

We took off his clothes, and he got up on the toilet. he sat there for a while making funny noises, and pumping his fist. He kept on saying "I poop", but nothing was happening. By now the entire family was in the bathroom. Miles on the toilet, Zoe was looking in the mirror, and Kyle and I just standing there holding a separate unrelated conversation (Its weird, but we all gather in the bathroom quite a bit..). Anyways, I grew impatient, and left the room, Zoe was now somewhere else doing something, and Kyle was standing in the hall between the bathroom & our bedroom talking to me.

And then it happened! Kyle thought he heard a "plop".

I thought it was Miles' pacifier falling in to the toilet. We all got up, and ran into the bathroom, and there he was still sitting on the toilet as calm as could be. Kyle asked "Miles, did you poop", Miles shook head head yes. Kyle (our certified smell investigator) took a look, and sho' nuff the boy had pooped!! We (Zoe, Kyle and I) sang "Go Miles, you poo poo in the potty it's your birthday, Go Miles is your birthday, you poo poo in the potty" it was a real live house party with clapping and stomping and whoo hooing...

Of course poo poo parties don't last long, and someone always has to clean up afterwards....
