senoritafishYee-ha!
Potty training of Number one is now complete (I hope)! We finally decided putting Angus to bed wearing diapers has been a mistake, and had him start wearing undies to bed. After three days of no movements, he finally told us he had to go potty, then kept jumping up and down off the toilet. I finally realized something else was going on (sorry Angus, Mommy is dense sometimes) and I said "Angus, do you have to go ka-ka?" (several times because of all the jumping up and down, humming, looking in the toilet, unwinding toilet paper, etc). Finally I got him to sit and concentrate on what he was trying to do. He was quite surprised to hear a big plop and immediately jumped up again. "Are you sure you're done?" More effort; eventually we were all rewarded by three more plops.
He got three stickers for that one. I poured myself a big glass of wine. Whew!
