Potty training continued...

So far we are on day 2. Poopie has only had two major accidents. One pee and one poo-poo. He did tell me he had to go but we could not get to the potty fast enough. That seems to be our one major hurdle. He starts going before he tells me, but he will finish on the potty. We'll see what day three brings...

Above: the potty was in my room because we woke him up last night at around 11pm and then first thing this morning to go so the potty was in my room so we would not have far to take him from his room. Guess what? It worked! No accidents over night!

Below: A cute pic of Brother reading to Poopie. The kids have been so good with all this. they really make a big deal when Poopie goes in the potty. He really looks up to Brother and Sissy so it helps to have them help out with the enthusiasm.

Potty Training book saved my Sanity!!
________________________________________
Men’s Health Magazine (Sept. issue) recommends Potty Train Your Child in Just One Day: Proven Secrets of the Potty Pro by Teri Crane. My husband picked us up a copy after reading the article. IT REALLY WORKS!!

Everyone is talking about throwing a "potty party" to potty train a child. I was so desperate; I was willing to do anything. Her book outlines 10 themed parties. What kid doesn't love to play and pretend? All my mommy friends have successfully potty trained their kids with her book too.

Honestly, when I first learned of this book, I thought NO WAY! Maybe this would work on a little girl, but NOT a BOSSY, 2-1/2 year old BOY. NO WAY! Guess what? It REALLY WORKED!!! Teri Crane SAVED MY SANITY!!! Her book was easy to read, funny and extremely helpful. I can't thank Teri enough. I would HIGHLY recommend this book to EVERY parent. It will save you much grief and frustration. Potty training shouldn't be difficult, we as parents make it difficult because we don't know what to do. Teri teaches you. Buy the book, it's the best money you will ever spend

Most amazingly, I had some questions, so I called the author, and she CALLED ME BACK!!
