Jakin on the Potty?

So yesterday Laura had a hunch Jakin needed to go poop.  So she scooped him up and put in on the potty in the bathroom.  After a few minutes of coaxing by Laura, Jakin went poop on the potty.  That is pretty cool, although I think it is a fluke.  Jakin is not even 2 yet and I think he is a little young to grasp the concept.  Later in the day, Laura put Jakin on the potty again.  Another surprise – he went poop again.  This is quite remarkable for our 22 month old.  Jakin thought it was pretty cool since he got the standard reward of 2 M&M’s for going poop on the potty.  So today, Laura tried again with Jakin, this time it was to no avail.  Jakin was not co-operating.  Afterwards Jakin came downstairs and was pointing at the M&M’s, but without going poop, he doesn’t get any.  So, that confirms my theory that Jakin isn’t quite sure of what to do and what actually gets him his reward.  Hopefully with big brother Josh showing the way, he will get it soon.  That would be nice to have only Jude in diapers.  Very nice indeed.

A little too good to be true. I wish it worked like that!
