Potty training...oh what fun
Mason has started to show an interest in potty training, so here we go! So far potty training has proved to be rather difficult. Mike is gone, so trying to take care of the boys alone has been somewhat of an adventure, but now Mason seems to be telling me it's time to potty train...why not add that in right? He is ALWAYS taking off his diaper. He doesn't like it being "dirty" in the least bit. So I put him on the potty and he was going, even if just a little bit. Now though he seems more obsessed with flushing the toilet and washing his hands. I put him on the potty and he says, "All done!" and then "Flush!", even if he didn't do anything...then that is followed by "hands". I have started not letting him flush if he doesn't go, because let's face it, I don't have the time to let him "play" in the bathroom. So, when his diaper is taken off, he sits on the potty and if he doesn't go, then that's it bathroom time is over. It's kind of sad that I have to use flushing the potty as a reward for actually going on the potty, but let's hope that works!
