Potty Time!

Potty training freaks me out. No, seriously. I have never trained anyone or thing to go potty in the correct place before. Never had to train our dog because he was an outdoor dog, plus I was like 5 when we got Bronco, so of course my mom wouldn't have made me do it. Well...when Logan turned 2 1/2 in March, we decided to try the potty thing. Logan freaked out!!!!!!!! He was super scared of the toilet and it just didn't work. So, I decided I didnt' want a battle...I was going to wait for a little bit longer. Keep talking to him a lot the last few months about the potty and he would occasioanlly sit on the toilet here and there.
Well, I decided last week to give it a try again. All day yesterday, Logan went without a diaper, had a few accidents but started to get the idea. Never went on the potty but was sitting on the toilet a lot.
This morning...I am proud to say, Logan went pee pee twice on the toilet!!! I know I have a LONG way a head of me but I am so happy he understood!. He told Dadddy he had to go and he went in and did it.
Anyways....think of me these next few weeks as we do the potty adventure. Honestly, I am doing this all in prayer because I don't know what i am doing:):) I So far what I am doing is working, so we will see if it stays that way!

Not that I have any kids of my own, but from preschool experince... boys are much harder than girls. So just think, the next one will be easier for two reasons.... 1) Girl 2) you'll be experinced!

I'm sure you're doing great!

NO!! GIRLS AREN'T EASIER!! HAHAHAHAH

Oh dear. You are a brave brave soul to let him run around without any underoos on. I can't do that for fear that our extremely anal landlord would have a coronary. Johns week of vacation next week is dedicated to getting her trained! Potty prayers all around, my friend! hahah

LOL....it is funny you say that Abbie because My sister in law Sarah says the same thing. She has two girls and one boy and says that Reece was cake compared to her girls! So...with that said...we are still working on the whole potty thing....it is hard when we are busy and can't focus on it!! Good luck to you too!
