Potty Time + Happy Mother’s Day!
Happy Mother’s Day to all the mommies and mommy-to-be’s out there!
So on thursday after work I picked up Zoe and we headed home. There was a box that had come and I knew what it was. It was her red potty chair. I knew she’d love it because of the color. Red is her favorite. I opened it and Zoe was sooo excited she started to strip down her pants and attempted to take off her diaper. We sat in the bathroom for half an hour with no success but she was just ecstatic to sit in her red chair. Friday morning she wakes up and goes to the bathroom and pulls off her pants and strips off her diaper and then plops her lil heiny onto her chair. She’ll tell you that she peed but it’s never true. Saturday afternoon she wants to try again in the afternoon. No success again. I think she just likes sitting in it. I don’t think it’s a big deal though. We have all the time in the world.

Zoe’s Daily Funny:
My mother’s day started off like any other weekend morning. I woke up with Zoe smiling at me asking me to play ‘horsie’. Our ‘horsie’ dialogue usually runs something like this:
(Zoe is always the pink horse and I’m always the yellow baby horse)
Zoe: Are you ok baby?
Me: Yes I’m ok. Are you ok?
Zoe: Yes. Let’s dance. (and then we proceed to make it look like the horses are doing some sort of seizure like dance)
Zoe: I’m tired. I’m sleeping. (then she lays her horse down and stares down at MY horse to make sure I follow her lead)
Me: Me too. I’m sleeping too. (then we proceed to make snore like noises for 2 seconds)
Zoe: I wake up!
Me: Shhhh! I’m still sleeping.
Zoe: Wake up! Wake up! (this is where her obnoxious pink horse gets all up in my baby yellow horse’s face. rudeness.)
Me: Ok I’m awake.
Zoe: Help me! Help me! (this is where her horse has now fallen off the dangerous blanket cliff (which is my really my knee covered with my comforter) and onto the mattress)
Me: I’ll help you (this is where my tine baby horse rescues her fat, much bigger, pink horse)
Zoe: Help me! Help me!
Me: I did help you. You’re ok now.
Zoe: Help me! Help me!
Me: You’re ok now!
Zoe: Don’t yell at me. (this is what HER ugly pink horse says to MY eversobeautiful baby yellow horse)
This is where I wanted to chuck the pink horse across the room and out my bedroom door but then something in my mommy conscious says that would not be a nice thing to do. Dude. I’m still like half asleep. You try playing this first thing in the am. Not easy I tell you.
:: 05.09.10 :: My WONDERFUL Mother’s Day
So after we woke up we’re still lounging around and Zoe wants to sit on her red chair. So the hubs brought it over next to the bed so Zoe could watch tv while she attempted to pee. After about 15 minutes she stands up and goes “Mommy, my hands is dirty.” So I examine her hand. I don’t see anything so I touch it and it feels a little wet on the tip. I lean over her shoulder to look in the potty chair and I yell out “HUN LOOK!”
And it was big too! I know. You’re grossed out but only a mom would understand the greatness of this moment. If you notice just north of the diaper there is a little tiny ball of poo on the floor that I found later. I think she pood, saw the little round nugget, and picked it up out of curiosity. I also said these words to her because I thought that it just had to be said “Zoe, poopy is not chocolate so DON’T put it in your mouth EVER! Okay? Do you understand?” You never know, ya know?

Tessa and Emmy always want me to play with their dolls, and I swear it’s SOoOOoo boring, i’m practically crying because I’m yawning so much.
Happy Mothers Day!!!
that’s massive….
toddler excrement is way too entertaining for mommies, i know! …high five zoe!
happy mother’s day!
hey, tell choong to work on his penmanship! :P
luv the card!!!! too cute! oh…how they grow up so fast?!
hahaha. that’s cute but disgusting at the same time. i don’t mind reading about poop. but seeing it digitally is too much. LOL.
cleaning up baby /toddler poop is nothin’ compared to adult poop though. gross but true.
hope God blessed you with a lovely mother’s day!
wow that is a big poop! good job zoe! and happy mother’s day susan
Good job Zoe, in all regards! (I do spend way too much time with my husband if that didn’t gross me out…)
@minikini - hahaha if you must know, he was havign zoe hold the pen so it would be like she wrote it while he guided her.
whoa that’s a huge poo!
I think I’m going to have to bookmark this for when I have kids as “wise words for potty training, poo is not chocolate”
not sure which is the most beautiful, zoe’s painful smile, her poo, or the mother’s day card.
you got ddong for mother’s day!!! yeah ;P
i just love your stories…
and better make sure there’s no expiration on that credit…my hubbs actually put those types of things on it
omg dude she is really potty trained already? wth! can u potty train Audrey? She regressed big time and refuses to go ever since lil sis came into the pic!!
Oh my, I laugh so hard, I started to cry! Zoe you make my day!!!!! I really think you should turn your blog entry into a book. There REALLY cute funny and makes me want to be better mom. You do such a great job, and I think you make this whole mom thing look easy! I think you’ve done a great job with her and I know you’ll do a great job with the little one in your tummy! Thanks for the post. My husband had a kick out of it too. And I understand what you mean by ”You’re grossed out but only a mom would understand the greatness of this moment.” it is a great moment, enjoy. And I hope I can get my little one to enjoy his potty seat too.
@Mrs_Cho08 - hahahaha i’m glad you liked it. wow you cried? i didn’t think we were that funny. hahaha but i’ll take it! i make it look easy? i think it’s hard. hahaha i really do but i think your words are really encouraging. we all try to do the best we can right? my advice with the potty seat is pick a color they love even if it doesn’t match your bathroom. hahaha….
@a_nut07 - no way! i think we got lucky with that ONE incident. hahah but she is far from being potty trained. dude my mom told me that when hannah and i were babies that she had the HARDEST tiem potty training sarah because sarah saw her little sisters in diapers and didn’t want to do it. i hear you man.
@kanipark - AH HELLLLZ NO there had better not be an expiration on it.
Congrats on the poopie, Zoe!
haha. your entries are always so entertaining.
So cute!
Nice! Thanks for sharing! What a milestone! I love your stories (and photos).
