Potty Training Pleasures - See Poopie

Now the daughter wants to see her poopie- we thought we had a start on the potty training but it seems that she prefers the diaper and asks to see it every time.

Daugter laying on her back, pantless, as I am wiping the brown smear off her crotch she insists "See Poopie Daddy. See poopie now!" Is this part of the anal phase that Freud theorized about?

Of course being two she now insists that "Daddy do tit" when a poopie diaper is to be changed. With the wife being 26 weeks pregant with two in the oven it is getting harder and harder for her to comfortably do things like change a shitty diaper and pick up a 35 lb two year old. It is a good thing that the daughter wants daddy to do it.

I'm in Puebla Mexico about two hours drive outside of Mexico City. Direct flight from Charlotte - about 3.5 hours- not too bad. The bus ride here was worse - 2 hours. Mexico City is freaking huge. I am here for a trade show to find new suppliers closer to our Honduran operation. With the passage of CAFTA we will be able to source raw materials elsewhere in Central America and use them in the manufacture of our finished products without having to pay duty to bring them back in to the United States. This could mean big savings for my company.

Damn I am tired. I need to get all the sleep I can get now because after the twins arrive (we are calling them Elvis and Priscilla since the wife doesn't want to tell anyone the names we have picked out) I won't be getting any sleep. Thank Jupiter (one of my gods) the wife has a good lead on a part time nanny. It doesn't matter that we will have to sell the house to afford a nanny, as long as I can get some help and sleep.
