Potty Success

Carson is finally potty trained (for the most part). We have been working on it for a little while and it did not seem to be sinking in until last week. He finally did it for a whole day. Well that day quickly turned into two and then three and now I am proud to say that he has been in underpants for a whole week (with the exception of bedtime and nap time) and he has only had 1 accident. We are so proud of him! I am just so glad he did it by 2 1/2 because it is only 6 weeks until baby time. I am so glad that I won't be changing two sets of diapers.

His reward/bribe for learning to use the potty was a Batman helicopter. Batman and Helicopters are two of his very favorite things so he was pretty excited to earn this awesome toy.

Good Job Carson! We are so proud of you!

Really? That's impressive!
He sure seems like he is thrilled with his new bribery toys! Nice work!
I'm really liking it here, Hayley! I think you would love it (sorry!) ; )
Mainly, the people are so nice and POLITE, unlike ABQ. Sometimes you just want a smile back, ya know!?
Miss you!

Curiously - we gave Ari a batman helicopter when he learned to potty at our apt.
