I had decided that once bible camp was over that we would start potty training Aaron to get him ready for preschool in the fall. I did not want to wait until his 3rd birthday because I did not want to cut the timing too close...plus I was SO sick of changing two kids diapers!
Aaron was quite hesitant at first and did not like sitting on the toilet at all. I just set the timer for every 30 minutes and made him sit down and try. There were a few accidents along the way, but by day two and three he finally got it. He was so stinkin' cute...every time the pee would start to go he would look down at it and say, "There it goes again!!!" He was so proud!
Poop has certainly been a bit more of an issue, but that is to be expected. He finally has it down now but there were a number of pairs of underwear thrown away those first few weeks. I have learned that the secret to a "regular" child is 1/8th tsp. of Benefiber in his morning milk and he is ready to go in about a 1/2 hour! I just have to be careful and not give it and then leave the house. Yikes!
I am so proud of my little Air-bear! He is getting so mature and is communicating so well. He is even protesting his name recently! If I call him Air-bear he will sometimes say, "No, my name is airwin michow hawey!!! Melt my heart.
