Tara: Do you have any books on robots? Giles: Oh, yes, dozens. There's a lot of research to be done in order to--no, I'm lying. Haven't got squat. I just like watching Xander squirm.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

So, in exciting toddler news, Frances used the potty this morning!

She's been interested in the wee toddler toilets at daycare, so we put the potty into the bathroom so she could sit on it when we were in there and play potty. I have no plans of pushing her potty training early, but who am I to squelch a curious little girl? Anyway, this morning she takes me into the bathroom and unzips her Dr Dentons, so I help her wiggle out of them. Then she wants to take off her diaper and sit on the potty chair. I again oblige. She points to the toilet--I am to sit on it while she sits on the potty. And then she does it! She pees in the potty! OMG!

And, er, this is probably of much more interest to me than anyone else on the board. But I'm so excited I had to share.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

That is very cool!

I'm so proud of her.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Dude. That's way cool.

Of course she may get confused when she drags your DH into the bathroom with her.

So maybe you get to mostly maintain the diaper status quo instead of it doubling! That was so helpful of her...

What is even happening?

Burrell, that's great!!!

I never tried it that early, but my pediatrician swore it was the right time to try it. You might want to think about pull-ups for days, when you're home, because it will make it easier for her, and something more under her own control (which is half the fun for them, I think).

He can sit and tuck.
