It's a start...

We have been talking to Lawson about how big boys go to the bathroom in the potty. He will actually tell you that he has to poop but of course that is while he is in the act. So we did a little bribing...we put a kit kat bar (which he had been wanting since Halloween) above the cabinet in his bathroom. We told him if he went pee-pee or poo-poo in the potty he could have that kit kat. It was really hard not to give in when he looks at you with those big blue eyes and says "Momma, kit kat please?" but I resisted! Sunday he was about to eat lunch and he grabbed his diaper and said "poo-poo" so we immediately took him straight to the potty. He pitched a fit so we distracted him by reading books. He sat there for about 15 minutes and said he was done so I got him off the potty and low and behold he had pee-pee'd in the potty!!! We were so excited and he looked at us like we were crazy. He finally got that kit kat!!!

We have not gone again but I feel like this could be a start. We are just trying to make it a routine of him going when he gets up in the morning, after lunch, when he gets up from his nap and before bed. I would really love to have him potty trained by the time the baby gets here!! Here's to trying!!
