King Austin

This is where Austin's potty was the first time he ever pooped in it. It will most likely stay there for the remainder of the summer. I think it looks kind of nice, we have our furniture and Austin now has his "throne," after all, he is the king of this house!

We have a lot of naked time in this house. I don't know if it's because Austin is the son of Chris and I, or if it's just because he's a toddler, but he likes to run around naked and that is just fine with us. Many times if we are in the backyard, Austin is naked from the waist down. This is how we found ourselves playing the other day when I noticed Austin was about to "go." I told him to wait a minute while I ran and got the potty fully thinking I'd have a mess to clean up when I got back outside, but instead, Austin just sat on the potty, pooped, and stood up. He looked in the potty and then back at me, like, "Well! Whuddaya know?"

It would be nice if this was going to carry over to a potty training couple of weeks, but I don't think we (him, nor I, are there yet). So, I'm just happy that he has at least seen, felt, and is starting to understand what this strange seat with a hole is for!
