Boot Camp

Well, the big day has finally arrived. We started Potty Training Boot Camp at O700 hours this morning. The day started with a game of pretend with Ash's big floppy puppy. We put big kid underpants on him, gave him a drink, and took him through the potty process. Right off the bat Ash was excited and wanted to try. So we picked out some Thomas undies and went to sit on the potty. The seat was cold though, and Ash was not happy about that. He jumped off in a hurry, but we were able to get him to sit longer on his subsequent trips to the bathroom.

So far Ash has kept a good attitude. He's enjoying his salty snacks and lemonade, and is excited about the m&ms he gets when he has dry undies. But, of course, our regular little boy who does a number 2 right after breakfast every day, has not had to go yet. And, our little boy who seems to hold water like a camel, has already had two accidents. He has sat on the potty about 8 times now, with no luck.

I'm already ready to be done with this. But we will press on! Seeing his cute little butt in big boy undies is worth the effort. =) (I would've posted pics but the new computer is not cooperating)
