... in his POTTY!!!
This is not the very first time but the first that we gave him an incentive and it worked. This kid doesn't care for candy; he wants to play in mama or dada's car!
Since R was moved into the toddler room at school at around 22 months they have worked on him on sitting on the potty after every diaper change. Since that time he has probably gone about 10 times. 3 times at our house but two of those times were with Grandma. The first time he did it at our house I screamed in excitement so loud accidently that I think he has been reluctant=0.
At school last week his teacher Jodi expressed how much she could tell R was truly ready to really be worked with more on his potty skills. All of his friends at school who are about 3 months older are already in underwear and she sensed R really was ready too. B & I had been really good in recent months about setting him on the potty after each diaper change but now that I have been back to work and my tummy has grown bigger this has changed. After she talked to us last week we promised we would try harder. So since them as tired as I may be; after each diaper change I have set him on his potty. Tonight he wanted to play in my car. B & I are both pretty tired after a busy weekend so B said if he went pee in his potty he could play in my car.
The pics below show the results of this conversation! Way to go Lil Man!!!
Wow, good work Ryden and Mama! Alright I may be inspired to start potty training now -- we're such slacker parents. I like your incentive ideas. :)
ReplyDeleteI don't think I would be as inspired right now if it wasn't an assignment from his teachers=).
DeleteWOW E WOW! This is very exciting! I thought I had Juju trained after a week of no accidents, even over night, but once I turned it over to her to decide when to go potty she has gone back to using her underpants. Only a day into this phase so I HOPE she decides to do it, otherwise I can see that I am the only one who was potty trained. Hmmmmm. We'll have to share potty training updates! I wouldn't be surprised if R is trained before J!
