Yesterday after lunch, Nico wandered off to the front door and stood up to poo a little, which I noticed. I then took him to the bathroom, signed bath a number of times, signed potty (toilet, actually), and put him on his kiddie potty. You could tell that he knew this was serious, as he mostly didn't play with the toys around him (during the pre-bath potty-sitting, he plays with the toys and gives them to me to throw in the tub). He pooped, I cleaned him up, and we threw a little party and parade.

Today, late in lunch, he started to squirm and concentrate a little, but kept eating. Edamame course done. Grapes almost done, then he made some sort of sound to get my attention, and signed "bath."

A few minutes later, he, again have dealt with it as a serious moment, pooped in his potty, applauding for himself the whole time.

We are very excited by this development.
