Crappiest. day. ever. literally

So we have been sorta busy. (Too busy to take pictures apparently).
It started with a potty training test run.
Ezra has been asking me to change his diaper frequently and exhibits signs of discomfort if I don't do it right away.
He is quite insistent.
So I thought perhaps he would rather wear undies and be dry and comfy all the time.
And he took to it rather well.
The first day he had one tiny accident but successfully used the potty five, I say 5, times!
He was enthusiastic and loved his ca-uuute underwear.
What is it about a tiny person in tiny underoos?
Anyway, the next day was different.
He was annoyed and wouldn't sit on his potty.
And every day since he has been unwilling to cooperate.
Except to tell me when he needs to go but and how much he doesn't want to go on the potty.
Plus he defiantly held his ... well, poo for four days.
Finally after trying to coax him to use his diaper with no avail, Scott administered a suppository.
It was traumatizing for all three of us.
Traumatizing, yet quickly effective.
So effective in fact, that I became the potty as he shat all over my leg, the carpet, Scott's shirt, and everywhere else within a 5 foot radius.
It was awful.
That was on Saturday.
Scott's birthday.
Happy Birthday to him.
He said it was definitely his crappiest birthday ever.
Pun intended.
However, as soon as we emptied an entire bottle of carpet cleaner on the floor and had baths, we proceeded to do Scott right and fix up a cake and decorations.
I didn't take pictures because Scott isn't a huge fan of celebrating his big day and I was in my skivvies.
Anyway, other than that we have been enjoying Scott's time off before he heads to Tacoma for his first rotation.
After passing his 1st set of boards with flying colors he is starting his final year in optometry school!
We are so proud of him and all his hard work.
What a smarty-pants.
This year will be a little hairy.
More on that later.
I am feeling a little lazy and secretly want to watch Dancing with the Stars.
But I will leave you with one happy little picture ...

I can barely stand it. So. dang. cute.

That is a horrific potty story! But I'm glad Ezra is feeling better. I agree, kids are adorable in their undies. Happy Birthday, Scott.
