Potty Training: Day 1
Success! Jacob goes #1 in the potty twice and #2 once at school!!! (Large amounts of juice + no escape from the potty = success.) A huge accomplishment! Mom, however, is unable to recreate the success due to her need to take care of other children instead of hanging out in the bathroom endlessly. Attempted to potty several times without luck for about 20 minutes each time. Jacob had two accidents before Mom abandoned the effort during the dinner/get kids ready for bed hour. Effort would be easier and quite possibly more successful if husband were not in Gallup until Sunday. Currently seeking guidance from teacher as to how to proceed.

Please pass on suggestions, our laundry bill is really running up...
ReplyDeleteThe fact that he did it at school is great news. I was thinking when you announced you would try it that it was going to be a long row to hoe. I hope his teacher has some words of wisdom for you. I suspect it ain't gonna be easy but.....GOOD BOY JACOB!
ReplyDelete"WoW! I am impressed that you had that kind of sucess on day 1! I never did! Maybe you ought to buy some frozen pizza or something ready made to make you a little less busy in the evening while you are getting this going!
ReplyDeleteGo Jacob, go! (and that is probably what you are saying to him the bathroom too, eh? :)
Seems like we always had early success with our kids...then they backtracked a little, then it caught on. I realize Jacob is special.
ReplyDeletecrossing my fingers and toes for you! I'm sure having him potty trained would make life a lot easier! (but A LOT harder in the meantime!)
ReplyDeleteSounds like a great start.
