Mommy's Awesome

As you know we have potty trained Andrew. For all the mommies you know you rarely have any private time, including the bathroom. Andrew loves to help me out when I am done by flushing the toilet. He loves it and it is one less thing I have to do. I'm sure many of you understand. Yesterday, Andrew went pee pee potty and I told him he did awesome. I realized that I had to pee pee potty so he waited for me to help me flush. When I was done Andrew looked in the potty and said, "Awesome Mommy!" I thought that was very encouraging.

Potty Training

My oh my it has been a while. For those of stalking the blog and getting tired of not seeing anything new you can blame my husband. He has been gone a lot and he takes the computer with him. I am one of the few people left at home without a working computer. We are in the process of fixing that.
Since I have had some extra time on my hands I decided to potty train Andrew. I used the principles from the book Toliet Training In Less Than A Day. I had heard about this from our parenting mentors and figured if it worked for them it would work for Andrew. The book was very helpful. We had to tweak a couple of things to make it more successful for Andrew and ultimately he was trained in less than a day. He has had a couple of accidents but they are more my fault than his. I take him to exciting places and forget that he might forget to ask to go potty. He is doing awesome. If I remember to take some pics I'll get them to you.
