When I started blogging, I swore to myself that there was ONE thing that I wouldn't talk about, and that was anything of the bathroom nature. I didn't want to be THAT mom who was constantly talking about her child's bathroom habits. Aside from the time I told you about drinking from a disgusting cup, I have kept to that.
Until now. But really, this post is not about the potty, but about my friend Sarah's magic toilet. No, really, Sarah has a magic toilet. Before Tommy was born, Luke was about 75% potty trained. We were really rolling. After Tommy was born, he did well for awhile, and then he regressed. I didn't sweat it too much because I've heard that's normal, but I have to admit that it was frustrating to have him say, "No, I go in my DIAPER," when I knew he was fully capable of going on the potty.
This went on for weeks, until one day when we went to Sarah's to play with Asher. Luke disappeared, and I thought I should probably go see what trouble he was causing. I walked into the bathroom to find him with pants and pull up off, sitting on the toilet. He proudly said, "I go peepee on Asher's potty!" From that point on, Luke has peed on the potty EVERY SINGLE TIME. Seriously, every single time.
However, he still continued to poop in his pull up and would refuse to do otherwise. Until last Friday, when we went to Sarah's house. Luke again disappeared, and when he reappeared, he announced to me that he pooped on the potty. I checked, and he had. And since then? EVERY.SINGLE.TIME.
When Tommy turns two, we're going to Sarah's house armed with nothing but a pair of underwear and some candy rewards (okay, probably just underwear because if I know Sarah, she'll have candy in the house already). And in the meantime? I'm pretty sure Sarah needs to think about renting out that magic toilet to all those desperate potty training mothers out there.

OOOH! Emma needs training--tell Sarah I'll be right over. ;-)
Hmmmm... maybe it's not Sarah's magic toilet but Asher's magic toilet? Is Asher potty-trained? Maybe Luke is just trying to be a big boy like Asher?
Either way, WHO CARES, and HOORAY FOR THE MAGIC TOILET!!! :)
shut up! he did it then w/ poop, too?! that is totally magic.
Poor Sarah... LOL :)
That's great! Neither one of my boys were easy to potty train & the more I tried the more they refused. I wish I'd had a friend with a magic toilet! =) I'll have to tell my nephew our's is magic- my sister would be so thrilled! =) Thanks for the idea!
My daughter could use that magic toilet for a pooping issue she is dealing with.
That is awesome?!
hmmm...I wonder if that magic extends to constipation issues for adults...
NOT THAT I NEED THAT OR ANYTHING SHUTUP.
My two year old needs Sarahs magic toilet!
I so need to get Troy on that magic potty, he has no interest in it at all.
And he calls his poop "Momma". That is so not okay.
Dude, we are SO moving in with Sarah. I have a 2 yr old that needs to be trained. Stat.
Where were these magic toilet's when the Battle of Boo was taking place?
Yeah for Luke (and magic toilets!)!
