Bruce Goes Potty

 

Bruce figured that if you had to wear a helmet to do a simple thing like ride a tricycle, then by golly, perching on a cold, hard, high chunk of porcelain while attempting to initiate bodily functions required at least the same equipment!

Needless to say, this is more of an adventure for Mom and Dad, with 3 different options for under garments, portable potty seats, carrying extra clothing everywhere and constantly watching Bruce for the tell- tale "I gotta go but I'm not going to tell you I gotta go" dance.

 

Here's a much simpler skill that Dad managed to teach Bruce in only one shot.

A good slurp of cold water is one of life's little pleasures. In fact, Dad recalls learning to climb on the kitchen counters just to be able to do this! Thankfully Bruce lives in the age of step stools, so advanced climbing skills are not required.
