Mouseke-potty time

We've been working on potty training for what feels like forever. Apparently A finally had the ah-ha moment and it's showing: we had an 8-day streak of no accidents! We're back on a 1-day streak at the moment, but it was a day out of the house on a bug adventure to Busch Gardens, so I feel like that should almost count as 2!)

Anyways, to help motivate we have been doing some rewards. For his first 5 stickers (1 sticker = accident free day; the 5 days don't have to be consecutive)  he got a Winnie the Pooh book. He LOVES Pooh and is quite happy with this prize. 

For his second run of 5 days he got to pick a toy. So off to Toys R Us we went. I was quite proud of his pick: a mouseketool set, complete with ears, tool bet and goggles. For those of you who don't watch Disney Junior, the new Mickey Mouse Clubhouse is all about problem solving and requires the kids use tools to solve the problems. 

We are already off having adventures using the Mouseketools in the house and around the yard. So, here's to our next long accident-free run and the next big prize (10 stickers this time and maybe a new movie or book as the prize this time).

Potty Fun

Well we're starting to potty train. So far we've spent a lot of time in the bathroom reading the same books over and over. There are certainly worse ways to spend time with the little guy though, and it's great he's learning what the word "proud" means :)
