There's always tomorrow

Well, today turned out to be a complete mess. We had 5, yes, FIVE accidents and no success stories. I really can't explain why. We are going to give it all we have tomorrow and then decide what to do from there. Let's hope a good night's sleep will give us a turn around.

We've hit some speed bumps

It has been a long morning already. We had our first poo in the underwear today. It was gross, for both of us. We also had a pee pee in the underwear today as well. No successes yet. It has been a busy morning.

Hoss is currently sitting on the potty. He was not real happy about it and actually cried, which is the first time he has done that. I guess we are both having rough days.

It's definitely a hump day that we are going to have to work hard to get over.

Day two wrap up

Today we had 1 success and 1 accident. Hoss is conveniently using his naptime and bedtime pull-up as the majority of his pee pee time. I am going to have to supply lots more fluid tomorrow than we had today. I think that was the result of our slow success today.

He did it again!

We have had another success! Just after my last post Hoss peed in the potty. And we had our celebratory dance and excitment. Hoss chose a new book this time around. He is still napping and I dread waking him up, but I know I need to soon.

My husband got home from work early, which he says he told me he was going to yesterday, but I guess I missed that entire conversation. So I took advantage of that time and went out to run some errands. Hubby was planning on playing a silly video game so there was no need for me to hang around the house. :)


Ok, it's time to wake up the sleepy head.

We're still trekking on

I haven't completed much "live blogging" on the Potty Training process today, but I have completed some housework and other daily tasks like bathing, something that did not occur yesterday.

We haven't had much success on the pottying front today. Currently Hoss is sitting on the potty again. I have tried a little bit of a different strategy today, sitting for long periods of time. You can see our TV from the bathroom so I put the potty chair near the doorway of the bathroom and I have turned on Hoss approved TV. He will sit on that potty for a long time with no problems. And with no peeing either, unfortunately.

He has had one wet accident today which I have not figured out how that happened. I haven't found the "spot" yet either, which scares me a bit. I just hope it wasn't in the toy box, which I haven't checked yet.

Naptime is soon and I have an afternoon of activities for myself. Hopefully I will get back with you all in the early evening. And let's hope that by that time we will have had some success for the day.

Day Two begins

We are starting Day Two and so far we have had no accidents...and no success. But it's a new day, anything can happen! Hoss and I have made up a new song about the Potty Training process, here's a short video clip of Hoss singing it while he's sitting on the potty.

Edit: Does the video load for anyone? When I previewed it before I posted it looked fine, but now I can't get it to load on my page.

We're not perfect yet

With success comes a fall. Oh wait, that's not right. It's, "pride comes before a fall."

Well, maybe that's what happened. Thirty minutes after our first success, we had an accident, pee pee on the floor.

It's a learning process.
