Kevin and I decided to take on the adventures of potty training a two year old. We did our homework. Ha ha. Ok, I did a little reading in a book my sis-in-law loaned me. Next Coleman and I made a treat bucket together. We than went to the dollar store, where he was able to pick out candy and toys to put in the bucket. He was so excited about his bucket that he carried it around for days.We also went and picked out big boy underwear and of course the little toilet seat (thomas the train) that sits on the big toilet.
Kev had him put on a pair of the big boy underwear just to try them on. Oh yeah, he wanted them off as soon as we put them on. We talked about it for a few days. I thought I would do it on a week we had nothing really going on. Than a few days later Kev asked Coleman "do you want to wear your big boy underwear?" He said,"yes". So it began...
Kev went off to work and so did I. I let him watch movies and drink, drink, drink. We would head off to the bathroom every 15 minutes. Crystal light seemed to be the drink that kept us running to the potty the most. Went right through the kid.
We didn't leave the house for three days!
Cole loved picking a treat or toy from the bucket.
Potty training can wear anyone out.
Our little Colie is doing great. He has caught on to the potty training thing pretty dang good!
