What a su-poop-er evening!

Sorry- this post is all about human excrement.

Nate was gone for the evening and the girls and I were eating dinner when Elysse stood up in her chair and said, "Poo-poo! Potty!" So I took her to the bathroom, took off her clothes, and sat her on the potty. Then I returned to the dining room to clear the table, but as I passed the bathroom, I saw Elysse standing up and growing a tail! I put down my dishes and tried to come up with some catching method that wasn't too gross (should I just place the dinner plate underneath?) but to no avail and down the poop plopped.

I asked Elysse if she had to make more poo-poo, and she said "Yes! More poo-poo!" I was trying to get her to sit on the potty, but she ran into the shower and then the girls came into the bathroom. Kezia asked me a question and I turned around when Ivy said, "Mom! Poo!" And out of the shower runs naked Elysse with a trail of poop behind her.

Now she's making poopy footprints on the floor and I put her in the bathtub and the girls are all firing questions at me. So I lock the door to regain sanity and take care of Elysse who is now pointing to her poopy footprints and saying, "Mommy! Poo-poo! Mommy! Poo-poo!" But 30 seconds later, Ivy is pounding on the door saying 'I have to go poo-poo NOOOWWW!" So I let her in.

Elysse has finished her bath by now and I put on her shirt and brush her teeth. But then she says, "Mommy! Poo-poo! Potty!" I take her shirt off again and now have two girls doing their business and, according to Ivy, "looking so cute". I go to the livingroom to begin reading a promised story to Kezia, but get up after sentance #2 due to the giggling in the bathroom. I figured Elysse was done with this potty run, and go into the bedroom to get a diaper. But as I come out, Elysse is streaking across the kitchen yelling, "Mommy! Shi-shi! Mommy! Shi-shi!" And sure enough, there is a puddle of shi-shi (urine) on the kitchen floor.

By this time it was too much and I just had to laugh.
