After dinner, Scott takes CJ to get a bath. A few minutes after they trotted down the hall, I heard CJ saying, "uh oh. uh oh. uh oh."
I thought, "Surely Scott has this under control whatever is going on." But the uh ohs kept coming. I refrained from butting in and kept cleaning the kitchen. Then I heard Scott laughing, and, between gasps for air, he told me I had to come see what was going on.
Turns out, Scott had been using the potty. He told CJ, "You can put your poop in the potty, too." CJ scurried off, and Scott didn't think anything about it. When he was done, he discovered CJ had in fact tried to put his poop in the potty.
The downside - he tried to put his entire diaper in the potty and flush it. This resulted in water overflowing from the toilet all over the floor and lots of uh ohs from CJ.
The upside - he didn't really have any poop in his diaper.
The picture is Scott trying to explain to a very confused little boy with pants around his ankles and no diaper on, that while putting your poop in the potty is a great aspiration, you don't put your entire diaper in there too.
These are the moments that make parenting hilarious!
