I pooped! Potty training in progress

My mom is here visiting and she took on the task of potty training David. My little 19 month old is verbalizing many things these days. Po Po (the maternal grandmother) asked David to tell her when he needs to poop - he replies OK. Several time over the course of the week, she's taken him to the toilet only for him to say "All done." Well, today was the day. This all happened while I was out doing the laundry off base. David started making noises/faces and Po Po asked him if he needed to poop and he replied OK. So after a few minutes of holding him above the toilet, he said "I pooped" Sure enough, he did it! Yay little Day-day (as he calls himself these days)! We'll see what happens tmw.

He also clearly demonstrated "excited." While enjoying his nigh-nigh juice (milk w/drinkable yogurt), I asked him if he was excited. With his hands straight up by his face and a smile on his face, he shook w/excitement and said "excited." It was pretty funny.
