In Celebration of All Things Yellow

August 23, 2008

Yes, that last pic is urine. Because Kai went pee in the potty today for the first time. Ever. I almost cried. Then, I almost cried again when Dax knocked over the full potty seat.

But it was incredible seeing Kai feel so accomplished and proud of himself. He was beaming and so full of pride, he didn’t ask for any of the treats we’ve been bribing him with all month (lollies, jellybeans, and, um…Chuck E. Cheese).

Update: Kai went again today, Saturday. While exciting, it is also frightening. Just the realization at how fast he’s growing up. He’s also been so conversational as of late; “I like this song, mommy!” or “That makes Jesus very happy in the temple!” Wow. To think he was a little baby in my arms not even three years ago. I’m getting teary-eyed now…

    HAHAHA I’m sorry I shouldn’t laugh. I DO feel bad for you. I’m sure potty training is no fun, especially when you have to clean it up off the floor. But it does make a good story. :)

    Yea for peeing in the potty ! And yea for the color yellow, prettier in the pot than on the floor. But pretty none the less.

    Isn’t it so great when we get excited about pee! I have written several posts about it. Scary, but true. Great work. I’m a designer too. Found your site through the auction. That’s a great cause.
