Wicked Pissah

Today was a wicked pissah day (Bostonians completely understand this term)!

Why??

Because I had 2 babies go on the POTTY today!!!

You have to understand I have been trying to potty train Kyle for a while now!  He just had NO interest in even sitting on the potty.  Today was a new day.  A potty day.

Just after noon I thought lets try this again.  I brought the potty out to the living room and Hailey volunteered to sit on it.  We took off the clothing on the lower half of her and Kyle lost his clothes too.  I couldn't believe it!

There was genuine interest in the potty!  YAY!

Hailey was the first to hop on and try. She tried and tried. 

We tried by drinking a lot of water.

We even played catch while trying to pee.

But guess who went first?

THIS GUY!

Here is the funniest part...he would NOT pee sitting down. This was just the only appropriate shot for internet purposes.  He HAD to pee standing up!  I guess kids really do learn a lot just by watching (LOL).

I was super impressed by Kyle.  Around 5pm he was playing in his room all by himself and then he came running out, half naked (I love seeing his little bum) stood over the potty and peed. All by himself!  I have to say for a first timer his aim was pretty good, and thankfully improved throughout the day. =)

I first rewarded them with 5 M &M's.  The second time Kyle peed he wanted carrots, (weirdo).  Hailey finally peed because she was determined to get M&M's.  But that reward came and went and what lasted.....

Stickers!!!! I tried this before, but this time it actually worked. So with only 1 chart and 2 sticker books with their names on them I had the perfect reward

Look how many there are!  We had to overlap..a lot! 

So whats my game plan?  I bought all new underwear (Kyle outgrew the ones I had bought at X-mas).  Hailey got Princess & Minnie Mouse panties; and Kyle got Super Why, Mickey Mouse, Buzz Lightyear, and boxer briefs (just in case) I also got some pull ups.  Hailey wore her Princess underwear, and had her first accident.  Kyle REFUSED to even try his underwear on.  So this weekend, despite the nice weather we are supposed to have I am thinking we will be house bound probably half naked (them not me) potty training. It took this long for them to get interested and excited about it; I am not going to do ANYTHING to blow it.

Wish me luck and a wicked pissah weekend =)
