Potty Training, Daddy-Style

Here's what you get when you cross a guy's idea of potty training with modern-day technology:

Yes, Millie is hooked up to Christopher's video iPod and is watching some Sesame Street clips while taking care of business. Shortly after this shot was taken, he had to lay a towel over her lap to keep the iPod from accidentally taking a plunge...an unforseen hiccup in this otherwise genius plan.

On a serious note, this just perfectly captures Christopher's parenting style. He's beyond creative with these kids. Every time I turn around they've got the funniest games made up (stroller-pushing contests, magic elevator) and secret songs to sing ("eggs and bacon and nah") and hilarious names to call each other. He knows that the best way to get us out of a stubborn toddler moment is through laughter, so he constantly has Millie laughing through tears. I am so thankful that he brings so much JOY to the house. What a guy.
