a BIG first for Isaac

Today we just finished lunch and I was cleaning up. I knew Isaac was in the dining room, but soon he was at the bottom of the stairs, starting to go up and I heard him saying "poopie!". I said "Do you have to go poopie?" Isaac gives his familiar nod and his 'yes' sound (sort of like umm-hmm). I take him upstairs, get his pants and diaper off and sit him on the toilet.

I then take the TV tray we keep in the bathroom (for just this occasion), set it up in front of him with some blocks and a book. We played for a few minutes, and I thought it was going nowhere...like it has a few times before. But THEN...he did it...HE POOPED ON THE POTTY!!!!

I didn't get a picture...I was too busy clapping and jumping up and down and praising him.

I don't know if he'll do it again for a while, but it was one less poopie diaper I had to change today :) I'm so proud of him...only 19 months old and already starting to get the hang of potty training! Let's hope he keeps it up!
