Poopy in the potty

It has been about 2 weeks since Bugga realized that I have a potty just his size.  At first he was really interested in it and would go into the bathroom and kinda carry it around, but he would never sit on it.  Even when he didn't have a diaper on he REFUSED to sit on it and would straighten his body stiff as a board.  I was wondering how I was ever going to get him to want to sit on it....

One day he had already gone poop in his diaper but I took the diaper off and had him 'sit' on it for a little bit so he understood that's where he goes poopy.  At first he did the same body straightening thing, but then I got one of his favorite books out and he sat right down.  Not for a long time, but it was better than nothing at all. 

This week though he has told me that he has to poop and he has gone twice in his potty without going in his diaper!!  :) :)  What a big boy!  I can't believe how fast he learns things, and with a little determination and perserverance potty training is going pretty well. 

We took a picture the first time he successfully went in his own potty.. which may seem weird, but it was a good proud parent moment.  :)  Who knew poop could make one so happy.
