Potty Training Bloopers

I taught Isaac a new trick. I threw a few Kix in the big toilet and encouraged him to pee on them. I didn't have any Cheerios, so Kix would have to do. He likes this trick, which is great. We've had a bit of a breakthrough in this respect.

The thing is he needs to pull his pants all the way down to his ankles when he stands up on the stool, or else a slight mess can result. Like yesterday, when I went to pull his pants down further, he ended up peeing on my sleeve. Lots of giggles. Then, as the stream slowed down, it began to dribble on the rim of the toilet and on his pants and underbuns. Isaac then says, "Oh no, that wasn't supposed to happen!"

Josiah counted to ten by himself yesterday too. He is amazing.

Elizabeth has been ridiculously smiley and chatty lately. She blows raspberries like a pro.

Boys and pee is so exciting. Just wait 'til your boys run to the bathroom together yelling "sword fight!!" as they are going to pee at the same time and their "streams" will.... ahem... fight.
