Potty Training on the Horizon?

There is no photo to go with this story for reasons that will soon become obvious.

Stella did a poo on the floor today; she had been in her diaper and a t-shirt since nap time and I had just been marvelling at how she had not been messing with the diaper. She took it off and said 'poo'; so I looked at her diaper and said, "No Stella, no poo." She looked kinda cute in her t-shirt and nude butt and I value the merits of 'airing out'. I went to check on something in the kitchen, and was going to return shortly with a dry diaper to re-diaper. From the kitchen I hear 'poo...poo-poo' and sure enough, there I found her, thankfully on the tile floor between the new porch carpet and the living room floor carpet; she was not only looking at the little pile of poo she had deposited on the floor, but had a piece of poo held close to her sweet little wide open mouth; after yelling 'no' to the poo in mouth idea (thankfully startling her, perhaps causing irreversible poo-poo issues, but nonetheless enough to get her to drop said poo), all I could do was laugh and thank her for choosing her spot well.

  1. try to get a little stable pot with arms that is about chair height for her so she can go to it. Put it into the bathroom near yours. POO!
