Potty Training

Tuesday evening was the official start of Aunta's special potty training boot camp. Basically this involves allowing your untrained 2-year old to wander around the house all day with no pants on while you constantly ask them "do you need to go potty?". All I knew going into it was that Isaac was afraid of the potty and that boot camp had worked for Madeline. So, why not? Two mommy's are better than one right...so Tuesday night the pants came off.


By Wednesday night, Isaac had used the little potty a couple of times and had somehow managed not to have any accidents on the floor. He went out twice in underwear and had 2 accidents...the second of which involved a mess on the 18th hole at mini golf that Uncle Mark got to handle!

Thursday morning, he asked Oma to use the "big potty". She thought he should sit down and needless to say she never had a boy and almost got a face full! Ever since, he's been standing up and doing great at it! Thursday we pretty much stuck with underwear all day. The two pair of pants we put on him to wear to dinner ended in accidents.

Friday & Saturday...we worked on underwear and pants...and he did great again both days. Big potty and only had one accident each day...each involving more than just pee. So progress has definitely been made...we've just got to work on the multi-tasking.

I'm definitely loving Aunta's potty training boot camp, and I'm so grateful for all her help this week!!
