Potty Seat

On our last library run, Alex and I got a potty book about Michael and how he uses the potty. So yesterday, I wrapped up his potty seat and prayed that this would help potty training (which fell back with all the changes). Alex was VERY excited to have a potty seat and instantly wanted to use it. With the use, he got a sticker and a piece of candy corn. The rest of the day, he was bottomless and did really well. Overall on Wednesday, he got A LOT of stickers and even got a pumpkin candy for using the potty to go poop.

Thursday...was not fun. Today, I thought we might move to the next step and just let him run around in pants without a trainer or diaper. We went through 6 pairs of PJ pants, 2 clean ups on the time out chair, 1 floor cleanup, and 1 washing of sheets on my bed.

The best story, we were in the basement and Alex was in the corner playing with some ducks he found. All of sudden, Alex screams "Mommy, poop in pants!" He runs over to me shaking his one leg. I get him upstairs and surrounded by wipes. As I am cleaning him up, he is gagging and saying "icky".
