Potty update

Okay this last week has been a blur! But I am happy to say that Crew is using the potty. He does not go in his underwear or his pull-up. He does his potty dance and we run to the potty. At first I think he thought we didn't want him to let it out at all :( Poor guy was holding it til he was just miserable, and screamed when he was going in the potty, but we seem to have moved past that stage now. He also wakes up at night and goes to the potty! This was something I was not prepared for since I still have to set my alarm every night for 1:30am to wake Kyntli up so she won't go in the bed. But he is a light sleeper like me and Kyntli is a hard sleeper like Noah. I still have to watch Crew. He isn't coming up to me and saying peepee, but he does his little dance right up to me. We even made a trip to the potty at Walmart yesterday. I'm gonna need some pointers on how to hold him on a big potty and get him to aim down. That was a HUGE mess, but he did avoid Mommy's clothes :) Overall, I am 100% pleased with the progress, and very proud of my Crew!!!

Potty Day 1

After further research I did not go with Potty Boot Camp. I went with potty train in 3 days. The first day is over. (Thank Goodness) from 8am-1230 we went through 9 pairs of underwear and lots of juice without a single success. Nap time was fine and he woke up dry. After that was the war of the poop. He really needed to go and just wouldn't, however, he was making a little connection, because I could see him begin to squirm and wimper right before. So we ended up getting the poo poo in the potty! YAY. By the end of today he is not fighting sitting on the potty and he is starting to be uncomfortable before he goes. All in all, according to the book, it was a successful day. Even after all of the yucky stuff and wanting to pull my hair out, I feel that it is going smoother this time around. I am more patient and positive (this could be because I don't have a newborn and a baby along with the stress of potty training this time around :)

This last picture is my team! YAY for a smelly free house!!! This is what will help me sleep good tonight!!!!
