All about the potty....

Lately in our house, it is all about the potty. Potty Training. Potty actions. Telling Mommy and Daddy about potty functions. You see - we are in the thick of potty training - both of them at the same time! There is a lot of pee'in and poop'in going on in the Goodrich household these days. And it doesn't always make it into the right spot!

If you are not into TMI (too much information) then you should probably skip this post. If you want a couple of funny stories...then read on!

The other day Travis and I were in their room getting them ready for bed and Wyatt is standing there. He lets out this giant fart (like an adult size fart) and gets this big smile on his face and says: "I fffharted". To which Travis and I just started cracking up!

I was gone one evening so Travis was stuck with dinner and the nightly bathtime routine. When I got home, I learned that Teagan had been running around without a diaper (because this helps with the potty training) and needed to poop. Well Daddy was in another room doing something - so Teagan just took a squat in the middle of the kitchen. And it wasn't a number 1 mind you. It was a number 2. Thankfully it was a tile floor.

Yesterday I had the kiddos outside and we had gotten out of the pool and I had filled up their water table. Well they were running around naked after I took their swim diapers off and Wyatt announces he has to pee. I am trying to teach him to pee into the grass - or dirt - or anywhere other than the patio - while trying to teach him to hang onto his dinger at the same time. This is me: I used to be a Marcom Director, I used to negotiate contracts for million dollar houses...now I am trying to teach my son to hold his dinger and aim for the dirt????!!!! What happened to me????!??!?!?

Anyway, Wyatt announces he has to pee and Teagan decides she has to pee too since Wyatt does (lot of peer pressure/competition with the potty training!) So Teagan squats in the middle of the walkway and starts to pee. Wyatt then follows suit and just starts peeing in the middle of the walkway. At which point I just sighed. And headed to get the hose to wash everything down.

And of course I saved the best for last...

Last week after we got out of the pool the kiddos were running around naked. I went inside to start/change out laundry. The kids come into the laundry room from the garage all excited saying:

"Mommy! Mommy!"
"Luck-si eat poo poo."
"Luck-si eat Tiggy poo poo"
"Mommy! Mommy! Luck-si eat poo poo"

You see "Luck-si" is Delux. She is our dog. We call her "lux" for short and the kids have called her "Luck-si" since they were babies.

I know. I know.

EEEwwwwww.

I need to get a job.
