Who knew Poopie was soo exciting?!?!?!?!

We have had a potty for Carson for about 6 months now! We stupidly bought the fanciest one. It sings and has all the bells and whistle. Carson really thinks of it more of a toy, than something he should sit on to do his business. The reason we bought it so early, was because Carson was showing signs(or so we thought) that he was ready to start potty training. He would tell us EVERY time he went(of course AFTER the deed was done) and he was taking off his diaper and occasionally going on the floor! We figured going ahead and buying a potty was the sensable thing to do, that way if he wanted to try it was there and ready to go. We never PUSHED him into doing it, but occasionally would ask "Do you want to go use the big boy potty?" Most of the time Carson would sit there a few minuiets, do nothing, and get up and start playing with all the gadgets on it that make noise! Well, a few night ago right before bed, Carson says to Derek, "I need TEETEE(which is what he says for pee)" and Derek knew there was no way he wet his diaper that fast because he had just changed it, so he told Carson to show him what he meant. Carson jumped out of his bed, ran to his potty, pull his pants down and sat on it. He never ended up doing anything, but we were totally impressed at his effort! So last night, he looks at Derek again and says, " I need STINKY" So Derek tells him, "ok lets go to your potty!" Carson does and sits there for a seconds and next thing I know the potty is singing telling Carson, "HE DID IT!" I was skeptical at first, thinking the potty just was sensitive and thought he went, but when Carson stood up he sure enough did!!! I wish we had a camera vidoeing our reactions lol!! We all jumped and praised Carson for a good 10 minuiets! We ran around the house saying "Carson poopied in the potty!" and we gave him a sucker! haha who knew poopie was soo exciting! We still arent' going to push him to do it, after all he is JUST turning two, but we do plan on encouraging it when we can!!!
