    Potty Time Story – A video that makes the potty seem fun Oh My does that seem necessary in our home. Here are a few you may get a chuckle over.

    At 18 months lil ‘r was holding over naps and nighttime and really appeared to be ready to go potty on the potty. So we pulled up the potty stickers in hand ready to go! We were good for a whole week going and happy stickers to show dad…then it happened. The poopoo kidnapping of ’07. The big white monster STOLE HIS POOOPOOO! (*said in caps because you should picture the little man at this point screaming and crying)
    Yes we watched his poopoo get flushed away. My poor potty trained little man has was ruined. For three hours all I heard as he sobbed uncontrollably was, “MY POOOOOPOOOOOO WHERE IS MY POOOOOPOOOO!” “NO NO POOOPOOOO” “IT STOLE MY POOOOPOOOO!”

    Diapers ever since.

    At 2 years and a month we had a discussion while Grandma was visiting and we were together in Mexico.
    Grandma C: Robert, don’t you want to go poopoo on the potty?
    Robert: Why that’s what diapers are for.

    Yes I think we are just hosed…

    Stacy – That is sooo funny! Great story!

    Me Ra – Horray for no more diapers! Those pic’s are adorable, Blaze is so funny with all his expressions!

    Isn’t it a little evil how we mom’s take so much pleasure in the potty/naked shots ๐Ÿ˜‰

    Me Ra, I need to be much more careful when I’m stalking your blog at work! I laughed out loud when I saw that batman pose. I had a few strange looks but that’s ok, Nobody too important.

    My wife and I are expecting our first in March, and I’ll be doing my best to remember all these photo tips for parents. Thanks for everything, keep up the great work!

    So cute… I love his long hair.

    A friend of a friend of a friend of yours sent me your blog, and I am totally addicted… been forwarding it to all my girlfriends (but not my customers ๐Ÿ˜‰ ), and they love it.

    I thought I would pass on a cute “heart” bokeh technique I found today.

    Love the pictures! The recipes you write are so helpful too. The explanations help me understand my camera better!! I also am thankful you explained the reflectors too because I am so new at this but want to use beautiful, natural lighting for shooting here.

  6. Kari says:

    Blaze will certainly kill you someday, but it will be worth it. Oh my goodness, he is adorable! We moms do love our boys! Now what do I do in a bathroom that is old, and 70’s, and needs a good cleaning?????

  7. these are SO funny! I couldn’t stop laughing! Thanks for sharing!

  8. What timing! Not minutes before reading your potty post, I was sitting potty side with my 2 1/2 year old son, singing his praises as he gruntted and tootted away! What proud and precious moments these are. Next time I will be sure to bring my camera! You go Blaze!We have the “Once Upon a Potty” book. It has been very helpful. May the most desperate Wee-Wee, Pee-Pee trainer win the video!

    What a timely post. We are right in the thick of potty training these days too. I never even thought of documenting the process – but these shots are so darned cute.

  10. Michelle says:

    Great pictures, and yes, Blaze will kill ya!

    So the big question is why do we Pacific time zone folks get 6 extra hours for the contest? Are you partial because you are a homer? Just kidding! I think you mixed up your time zone conversions.

  11. Maggie says:

    LOVED this post. Blaze looks adorable up on that pot. You really and truly captured his personality–and then some! My fav is the picture of him on the floor with his bottom lip sucked in. ๐Ÿ™‚ Thanks for the recipes, too.

  12. Michelle says:

    LOVE the pictures! You will need to use them for his wedding montage slide show! ๐Ÿ™‚

    Oh the potty training days! We had just taken out the Once Upon a Potty potty seat yesterday for our 20 month old. He is currently using as a chair while he watches TV! ๐Ÿ™‚

    We just have to find our DVD so he can watch Joshua say goodbye to his poop! LOL!

  13. I love the high key feel of these! Blaze is a star, he is so darn cute! Who knows where these will end up? Here is to a great 2008!
