BREAKING NEWS


This just in from Reuters ...

Today at approximately 12:30 p.m. CST, one Goose "Big Boy" Becker performed what is commonly known as Number Two in his freestanding Safety 1st Potty Chair. This news is made more profound by eye witness accounts which say that the act was totally unprompted by his parental guidance team. Apparently the trick was inspired by his acquisition of a package of Monster Truck Big Boy Underwear, a gift from his paternal grandmother.

At a press conference held just hours after the incident occurred, The Mother had this to say: "His father and I were just standing in the kitchen cooking cashew chicken (without cashews) when we heard the pitter patter of little feet, followed by shrieking and exclamations of the word 'poop!' He has been going #1 in the potty pretty consistently for the last week, but the advent of #2 is just too good to be true. Despite our fervent belief in his ability to replicate achievements, we aren't holding our breaths for the end of diaper days."

The Father declined to be interviewed.

Currently, The Goose is sleeping off the thrill of such a monumental accomplishment. For up to the minute coverage, stay tuned to this website.

Oh geez, I can't top the previous comment. *lol* But thank you for not taking a picture of it, because you know there's some proud parent out there that did (or if you did, then thank you for not posting it...). I'm off next Friday afternoon if you want to head down to the 'Boro. We can check out the Discovery Center. The Basha is now 9 mths old, can you believe it?!?
