This might just be a little too much information, but it's a noteworthy accomplishment for Stella. She sat on her potty and pooped. yay! she's done it before, but it was so long ago that I'm sure it was purely accidental. This time she seemed to fully understand what was happening.
I figured that with both of them each eating an entire banana on the way home from a very filling breakfast, there would be some elimination happening very soon. Stella happily fetched her potty when I suggested it and sat down on it to watch Clifford the Big Red Dog. She got really nervous when things started happening for her. She just wanted to get up and do it where she normally does it...in the diaper. I settled her back down and put my arms around her so she might feel more secure and then she just let loose.
When she was finished we had a great celebration for her, complete with singing and clapping. Both girls scrutinized the potty with a look of disgust on their face. They seemed to be a bit conflicted as to why I was so happy about this unpleasant little mound that she left behind.
After getting Stella's diaper back on it was Mabel's turn. But I was about 10 seconds too late to get her on the potty. Ah well, there will be plenty more times to practice.
