Upon further inspection, I've noticed another commonality between myself and the Peanut. We both like to poop at exactly the same time every day. It's bizarre. Every morning at 8:30 when I'm sitting on the can, "dropping the kids off at the pool" and reading the sports section? At precisely the same time, the Peanut freezes in her tracks. Her little cheeks get all flushed. And she squeezes out a few turds into her baby Huggies.
The cosmic timing of it all is so remarkable that it's almost preternaturally uncanny. Or as Magic Johnson once said (of playing with Kareem Abdul-Jabbar), "it's like we have ESPN or something."
Is this gonna be a problem when she gets toilet trained, or do you have 2 bathrooms?

Awww. Nothing like poop to demonstrate a wonderful attachment to your child.

I would think it will assist in potty-training. They ALWAYS want to sit on their little training potty when mommy and daddy are using the real thing. It just usually isn't a very productive event. In your case, it just might be.

That Magic quote is one of my favorites!

I hadn't heard that Magic quote in awhile.
Maybe now is the time to get Peanut her own little throne and place it next to yours. She can read her books while you read the paper...
You have now entered the world of having ZERO privacy when you are doing your business. My husband actually sneaks into the house and runs upstairs after work to go to the Library alone. For 45 minutes. I don't get to go to the Library...

Be glad that the Peanut is regular. It will make potty training much easier in the future. My daughter has the worst constipation. Sometimes, she gets backed up for days. Trying to toilet train her is like doing an ancient Indian dance and praying for rain.

So funny that the Peanut's face gets flushed when she's about to poop. Same thing happens to my youngest one (13 months). For about 5 seconds, his face turns beet purple as he lets out a poop. At first, we were worried. We thought he was getting flush or something. Never happened with his older siblings. Then, we realized he was just taking a poop. Now when we see him turn red, we laugh hysterically.

i'm with dutch. boyband would happily feign the movement of his bowels so he doesn't have to change foo's butt biscuits.
oh, wait -- that's my trick.
along these lines, i always know when she is waking up in the morning as it never fails to coincide with my daily constitutional. yay, we traded tmi. it's kinda like being blood brothers but different.

Syncronised shatting?
Coordinated crapping?

blow off stand off?
