Poop and a Jet

We have been working on potty training Kyle for a while now.  He has had the pee thing down for a WHILE now.  GO KYLE!  But the poop thing......well that's a whole other thing.

I tried everything!  We read books, he wouldn't poop.  I bribed him with stickers,snacks, and toys he would want- he wouldn't poop.  I would put him on the potty when I knew he was hiding to poop, he would stop and not poop.  When he would poop in his pants I would bring him in the bathroom put the poop into the potty and watch it flush, and that did not inspire him either.

I was patient with the pooping thing.  I know its a little harder for kids.  I recognize that they feel like they are losing a piece of themselves. So, I really did try to keep my cool every time I had to clean the nasty, yucky,gross, poop.

Last week we were out and about running errands and we ended up in "the paper store" Kyle now refers to it as "the present store". While we were there he explored the toy section a bit and found a blue jet.

He LOVED this blue angel jet. He begged me for it!  I told him "if you go poop on the potty, you can get blue jet"

24 hours later my little man pooped on the potty!!!!  He literally pooped, threw his arms in the air and yelled "I get my blue jet". Hailey then came in the bathroom and I told her Kyle pooped.  She joined in cheering him on.  She threw her arms in the air and yelled "Go Kyle! Yay!" Guess she got some of my cheerleading spirit =)

The next day (I couldn't get it that night, I just had LASIK) Kyle got his blue jet! He told everyone he saw that day "I got my blue jet because I poop on the potty"  THANKFULLY everyone he told was excited for him =) 

 Since then he has only had 1 accident .  I think it is safe to say he is fully potty trained.  I don't doubt we will have an accident here or there, and he wears pull-ups to bed, because he isn't quite ready to give up the milk before bed...but overall he is TRAINED!!!

 Go Kyle!!! and Thanks blue jet =)

***wondering where the picture of the first poop is??? I didn't take one, and if I did I wouldn't post it. BUT the weirdo Mom I am was sad I missed it.  I know, I am ridiculous!!!!!***
