me: tot! wait! pee pee and poo poo go in the potty, stinker!
nate: hahaha! yeah, dey go in da potty, mom!

we haven't officially started potty training yet, but we have introduced the concept to nate. i've been trying to change his diapers in the bathroom and let him sit on the potty to try. so far, he's peed in the potty 3 times. i can't decide if it's encouraging that he knows he should be using the potty, or annoying that he thinks it's funny not to.

O potty training, thou art the bane of parental existence.
