When Carter poops, something comes over him. I can't quite put my finger on it but it's somewhere between a poltergeist and a grown angry man, possessed.
Now we all know when Carter does his business, because he usually grabs on to a chair somewhere, straightens his legs and grunts. I always check on him to make sure he's okay. My sweet boy use to simply shake his head yes and go about his business.
Not any more. No, now something {or someone} has taken over.
Our convo might go something like this... {and please, picture Carter's voice, not as a sweet 2 year old, but a scary monster}
Jenni: Carter, where are you? :::looks around until I see him holding on to a table or an empty chair:::
Carter: I POOPIN!
Jenni: Okay buddy, everything fine?
Carter: OVER THERE! :::points to the door:::
Jenni: Whoa, okay honey. You want me to leave?
Carter: GET! OUT!
And I have about 15 seconds of video to prove it {taken by my sister Kacy from her iPhone on New Year's Eve}
Did you hear it? If you restart and listen to the first few seconds you can hear him say "I POOPIN!!" then at the end he yells "OVER THERE!"
Oh Carter Man... we love you so much!
And a quick pic from yesterday {where he happened to clear his entire bookshelf so that he would have a clear space to hold on too}
What can I say? My man wants his privacy.I must also quickly add that we don't laugh at him when he's pooping, but it came up in conversation about how he acts when he does it, and then he actually did it at our NYE party so that's why we were laughing in the video. I promise you that I am super supportive of my little man's pooping habits.
But I can't promise you that we don't quote him in real life situations on a daily basis.
