Johnny's in the midst of an step change in word acquisition. He has been acquiring new words consistently for a few weeks now, but this past week has seen him add a word or two a day. Last Sunday in the car, Kurt thought it would be funny to teach him poo-poo. Johnny thought it was pretty funny, too, and was happy to mimic Daddy.
We don't get much of a chance to advance in potty training during the week, and with ongoing building works at daycare last week and next week, they've had their hands full with a bigger class size and Johnny hasn't been put on the toilet more than once a day, if that. Yesterday, however, we got to put poo-poo to use. Today he had a bit of an upset tummy, and twice he announced "wee wee" to which I replied "do you need to wee" and he ran to the toilet and tried to climb on before producing wee wee and poo poo.
It's quite comical to see the look on his face when he busts out a barrage of gas and poo from behind, only to have me smile and say "poo poo." A puzzled look crosses his face and he looks over his shoulder, points to his bum and repeats "poo poo."
