The Letter of the Law

Micah has been doing very well potty training. (Yes, I'm talking about THIS again.) But he's still not doing what needs to be done when he has to sit. The problem is that he just won't sit. He will stand in front of the toilet and do his business, then have a mess on the floor. He will go in his underpants and wear it around with him like it's a diaper. He just won't sit. And we're not complaining, mind you. We're thrilled with the success that we do have.

We do, however, remind him Every.Single.Time. that he shouldn't poop in his underpants. Apparently, he listened.

Tonight as we were driving to church for youth group, Becky said, "Micah pooped in my underwear. True story."

It seems that while she was in the shower, Micah helped himself to a pair of her underwear, put them on, and soiled them.

Awesome.

Becky is really glad that they were an old pair. She just tossed them. But he didn't poop in his underwear, so we're making progress.

Oh my gosh- that is funny and smart! Poor Becky though! Hopefully he doesn't keep doing this. She may have to hide her undies!

LOL! Never say the boy isn't smart! Why did he have to pick on poor Becky? Why not one of the boys?

Oh my does that sound familiar. Generalization is not our strong suit either.

And umm speaking of shirts, you don't by chance have the two shirts you were making for the wee ones, do you? :)
