    When we first brought Lu home from Korea, we referred to it as the kimchi squat, but now that our Chinese kids do it too it is just referred to as the squat in our house!!!

    I can officially say that I have four squatters in our house!!!

    We eventually decided to teach Abby NOT to squat, b/c she was doing it @ some very inopportune moments!!!!!

    This brought a smile to my face because it's SO common at our house too. And they can hold that position forever!! Seriously- I played a Scrabble game with my 3 year old son (that took about 30 minutes), and he was squatting the WHOLE time. Amazes me!

    I love the squat, too!! It is completely natural for them to be in that position- so funny!

    Love the photo! Saidie is a huge squatter, too. I don't mind it around the house, but it grosses me out in the Walmart bathroom while she's waiting on her sister to finish going potty!

    The Tongginator stopped doing it at around age four. And oh, how I miss it.
