Toilet Tales

I hate Potty Training. So Tate has shown signs off and on that he wants to use the potty. Once last summer when we were to take a big road trip to a family reunion, so it was not the best timing. The other time he hated the feel of underwear and wanted his diaper back on admidiatly, so we didn't push it. So we waited for him to tell us he was ready again. We also have had these two toy trains waiting for Tate whenever he decided to poop in the toilet. We will bring it up here and there just to remind him. So this last week Tate came down wearing his underwear. His diaper was underneath, but I figured this could be a sign. So we got rid of the diaper and went from there. Tate was doing awsome.

Day One: Tate went the first half of the day with out any accidents. Later that day he asked if he got to choose a train (of course he couldn't forget this!). I told him he had to poop first. So he tries all day with no sucess. By the time he went to bed and we put on the diaper he pooped. So no Train.

Day Two: Tate had accident after accident and ran out of underwear. Matt was with him most of the day, so who knows if that had anything to do with it. By the time I came home Matt had had it and put a diaper back on him. (Tate was mad he never got his train)

Day Three: Tates underwear was clean but he would't wear them. he wanted to go all natural underneath his pants. So why fight it. He did really well but never pooped. He tried, oh did he try, He really wanted that train. That night Grandma and Grandpa were going watch him. Tate had to wear his pj bottoms. Needless to say when he pooped, it did not stay in. He yelled for his grandpa and showed him his wonderful surprise.

Day four: Dirty Pants All Day Long!

Day Five: I know your getting sick of this but.....He finally did it and got his train.

Day six: Tate decides he got his train, why try?

Aaahhhhhhhh! I hate Potty Training.
