Potty Map Part 2

Ok - So I have completely failed at blogging lately - Have I mentioned that Evan is completely potty trained?

Anyway - here's the current news:
Simone is speeding full charge ahead with her potty training - she is completely ignoring my will and wishes to keep her a baby for as long as possible. It has Evan more upset then me - he's like - come on can't I have the spotlight just a little longer????? I am not home all day, but Jodi has assured me that she does the same thing with her - constant cries of "Poopie" - Poopie, poopie, poopie. She then depending on her mood either cutely rubs from her belly downward, - like she's pushing it out, or screams and tugs at her clothes as if they are on fire and need to come off right away. Once the clothes are off - the diaper is a goner. She sits on the potty then immediately stands up and says done. (but nothing has happened)

On Dec 7 I came home from work, and Simone started the clothes are on fire screaming poopie thing - so I let her get naked - she walked into the bathroom, sat on the pottie, I was distracted talking with jodi when we saw Simone empty the potty bowl into the toilet and we both thought we heard a splash?? Normally Simone shouts poopie and sits on the pottie for less then a second and pretends to empty the potty bowl in the toilet then either repeats ad nauseum or pees on the floor afterwards. But this time - we heard a splash! - And there was a puddle on the floor. Simone also informed us "I did it" - So we made a huge deal over it. Evan started spasing out knocking down everything in his path. He spased out again the same way later when I told Scott about it.

Dec 8 the same thing happened again - only this time we saw the evidence! So I have pulled out the potty map, turned it over & Voila - Simone now has her own map. Poor girl - she doesn't get a bike out of this like Evan, and she has to share the spotlight with Evan who gets enthusiasticlly congratulated for teaching Simone.
She doen't seem to mind, as long as she's naked.
