Last night it took an extra 40 minutes for me to get Liam down for bedtime.
He had to poop.
I knew he had to poop.
He knew he had to poop.
And since the windows were open, I'm sure the neighbors knew he had to poop.
To make a long story short - Liam spent about 30 minutes complaining and trying to decide where to put this poop.
He wanted to poop in his diaper, he didn't want to poop in his diaper. He wanted to poop into the toilet. Oh no way, he did NOT want to poop into the toilet. He wanted to poop into the big toilet like Quinn. Oh no way, he absolutely did NOT want to poop into That toilet. He wanted his diaper back on. He wanted it off. He wanted it on. Off. On. Off. Oh so help me... all this with the whining and the holding of his butt and the crying.
Finally, I gave up. Put his diaper on and started rocking him and singing to him. Except, he still Has To Poop.
And the poop started coming and he started screaming.
No poop! Stop! Wait! Toilet!
So we went into the bathroom.
He wanted to sit on the toilet, he did NOT want to sit on the toilet. And so...
He stood there, with me holding a diaper under him, while he pushed his poop out right into the diaper.
And then I put it into the toilet where Liam laughed and said, "looks like ooh - ahh - ahh!" Which means, "it looks Curious George!"

So, um, ordinarily I would not suggest such a thing but if you happened to take a picture you could go here: http://ratemypoo.com/
My apologies. I listen to Howard Stern occasionally - or used to before my year's subscription to Sirius ran out - and that was mentioned. Oddly enough, I have not been able to get it out of my mind since. Go figure.
I did not take a picture.
It looked nothing like Curious George. I think the kid was delusional.
But uh, thanks for the link. I may or may not check it out.
Ah, we really should be neighbors. Joe and I had almost the same issue last night, except I think his problem is that he can't poop sitting down or something, so after an hour of back and forth on the toilet, I just gave up.
But he did pee twice on the toilet at daycare, so maybe we're getting somewhere with this.
