Potty mouth
We're in the midst of potty training Boo right now. It's actually going surprisingly well. We made the decision NOT to use pull-ups. We felt like they were a waste of time (and money) with Snuggle Bug and actually hindered his potty training efforts. So, with Boo, we skipped straight to underpants, using diapers only at nap time and bedtime since she's still not waking up dry.
Boo is very much into princesses right now so we bought her princess underpants and she loves them! She's very proud of her princess underpants.
So, she's doing quite well going pee on her own accord. And now she's actually going poop too!
The other day, she went poop on her own, and then came rushing to me saying, "Come look! I poopy in da potty!"
As she's proudly showing me her fine work, she points and tells me, "Dat's a big crap! I did a big crap, Mama!"
Umm...perhaps I shouldn't be saying "crap" around the kids, ya think?

Too cute! Good luck.
We went the no training pants route too, they are a waste of money.
I think pull-ups are a way for the diaper companies to 'hold on to' customers a little while longer. My nephew was still wearing pull-ups at night when he was 7 years old! Ridiculous! In my don't-have-any-kids-yet-but-still-an-expert-on-child-rearing-matters opinion, the quickest way to grasping the concept of potty training is the extreme discomfort that comes from having an accident!
Congrats to Boo on her successful 'big crap!' Sorry, but that is hilarious! :)
HAHAHA! It is amazing what they pick up on isn't it?
You have inspired me to work on my 2 year old. Thank you.

That is too funny! I realized how much I said "crap" when my daughter prayed to God to help tomorrow not be "such a crappy day" with her behavior. Oops!
Congrats on the potty training - Boo sounds like she is doing great!
