Riding the Potty Train - Finally :)

It was long over due and we started and stopped a few times along the road but when the forecast was going to be below zero for the next week I knew this was our window!  So we finally got Will a one way ticket on the Potty Train.  I knew I was going to have to think up something totally new and creative to keep him excited and interested.  Being that Will is almost three and has sadly had his fair share of candy I knew that alone would not work.  He could care less about the big boy pants so that shopping trip would be just another trip to target.  So I played up his weakness....trains!!

When he woke up I brought him onto the bathroom to see his "Potty Train."   He was super excited at first but then slowly realized what was going on and was not happy.  During his breakdown at 6am he then peed all over my feed in the hallway.  Not a good start.


But we all stayed positive and hunkered down for our first day.  Here are some of the days stats:
- 6 Pees
- 2 Poops
- 2 Accidents
- lots of candy
- 8 stickers
- 12 pairs of different underwear worn
- 1 jump of of his crib
- 3 times he asked US to go potty
- 2 juice boxes consumed
- zero time spent outside the house
- no pants all day

On to day two!
