#2 WENT #2
That's Ryan's title for this evening's accomplishment.

Disclaimer: This is a potty training post and contains potentially disgusting information.

The deal was that if Zach went poop on the potty seat, he would "earn" underwear. So tonight Zach said he had to go poop. He's said that before, with no results. But this time, the whole family jumped in and cheered him on. Jared told him all about his first underwear (yes, he remembers. Although seeing this scrapbook page about them didn't hurt.) And apparently it worked!
Zach sat down and I ran in to make sure he didn't do something really disgusting, like fingerpaint with it. When he stood up, I cheered for him, but he just stared in the pot. I'm cheering like a fool, trying to get him excited about it, but he just looks at me very seriously and says, "It's a snake!"
We went into the kitchen and got more cheering and positive support, then we went "shopping" upstairs out of his drawer of hand-me-down Thomas the Tank Engine briefs. Here's his choice. He was very proud to model them for me. I love these pictures! I could just squeeze his little tushy! (In fact, I did!)
