"I DID DIT!
I was really dreading the day we were to start potty training with Lincoln.
I dreaded the hours we would sit in the bathroom, this time with an extra kid.
I dreaded the messes and frustrations and the constipation.
I dreaded being homebound.
We spent hours in the bathroom with Tatum. We did puzzles, we read books all for one little tinkly a day. I thought we were doing so great.
Now, Lincoln. He is a different story entirely. I knew he wouldn't sit for hours like Tatum did, he is also a bit more stubborn and he is a boy. I was really prepared for the worst.
We decided to start Saturday morning, we tossed the diapers and hung out outside all day. The potty was in the backyard. He wet 6 pairs of underwear and he didn't pee.
Right before bedtime after a long day of wetness, he did it!
I stayed home from church with him the next day and he did fantastic--he even pooped!
By day three we were trained, we even took a trip to Target!
He has been doing great!
I am not naive enough to say we won't have accidents but I can't believe our progress.
He uses the BIG potty!
He loves to say "I DID DIT!"
Day 4 he had already filled his sticker chart and we were headed to Chuck E Cheese!
