Pottastic!

Our little blow-out the other night was forgotten by morning, and we seem to be moving forward on the potty train. He had his first big potty victory yesterday morning and even wore his underwear all morning and through breakfast. We are working the kinks out of the reward system...earning stars first and then after 5 stars he gets a potty present. He is not asking for presents every time he sits on the potty now and knows the goal. While I understand the drawbacks of using the material rewards, we could not seem to break through the initial hurdle of getting him to sit and try the potty long enough to be successful. I am hopeful this little breakthrough is the start of good progress on the potty training front. It was great to see how proud of himself he was when he used the potty.
