If you don’t have kids you should probably skip this post, because it focuses on the thrill of little kids using the potty.

Last Thursday was a milestone in the Johnson household - Cam used his big boy potty! Over the last few weeks we’ve encouraged him to sit on his little blue and white plastic throne just to get him comfortable on it. Luckily he took to it right away and started sitting on it several times a day - before/after baths or around diaper changing time. In fact, it’s possible he got a too comfortable with the idea:

Anyway, Thursday night he was in the bathroom pointing out (about a hundred times) which one was his potty and which one was daddy’s potty. Aimee and I were getting a little restless, so I got my hands damp in the sink, then opened his potty and flicked some water into it, which triggers some annoyingly happy music. Cam thought that was pretty awesome, but didn’t get the hint. So I went into the other room to talk with my mom for a minute, when all of the sudden I heard Cameron crying and Aimee celebrating!

Apparently while I was gone, Cam had started dancing around nervously, saying “Mommy…ish!” She sat him down on the pot and boy did he ever make an ish! Again, I know you have to be a parent to fully appreciate this, but I’m proud to show you Cameron’s big bathroom movement…I mean moment (picture edited to keep your appetite in tact):

Way to go buddy! Next up, driver’s permit!
