Potty Time

So I finally decided to do it and get Kayden potty trained. We do not need 3 kids in diapers! All of our summer trips are over, so it's time.
(Kayden will probaby hate me someday for posting this, but it was too cute to pass up.)

But, what do you do when your kid is so good about going potty in the toilet that they wake up in the middle of the night and go to the bathroom and then come wake you up to put a diaper back on them?

Yep, this happens most nights.

Or, what do you do when you are at Stake Conference and your wife is up on the stand, so you are trying to watch two kids and they tell you they need to go to the bathroom? You put a diaper on them before church because you didn't want to deal with potty training at church. So you tell them to go potty in their diaper, but they won't and keep bugging you that they need to go. So the baby gets to crawl around the bathroom floor while you help the other one go potty on the toilet.

(Shame on Steve for telling Kayden to just go in his diaper.)

Or what do you do when you are at the store, and you already went in the bathroom once, but now they need to go again and you are at the checkout paying for a full cart of groceries and they take off running to the bathroom. You can't let a 3 year old go off by themselves at the store, but you can't leave $200 worth of paid for groceries unattended. So you tell them they have to hold it until you get home, and they literally HOLD IT.

Or if you're at a store and just took them to the bathroom less than 15 minutes ago and they tell you they have to go again? Do they really have to go, and do you really need to take them? Steve found out that YES, you do take them! Otherwise you get to walk around with a huge wet spot on your shirt.

Kayden is really doing pretty well. We really only had accidents the first few days. He goes without us reminding him, and he will go poop now too. (Thank Goodness!) The first time he did this he told his Dad to go het his Mommy so she could see. (This was the hardest thing . He would usually just wait and go at night when he had a diaper on or in his underwear, but at least he would come and tell me right away that he went in his underwear. I will never have cloth diapers - GROSS.) Kayden even took his step-stool to the babysitters everyday. And he has only peed all over the bathroom once so far. I know there will probably be more of this to come with boys.

Drew's new favorite play toy is the toilet, and Kayden forgets to flush ALOT!

I really can't complain, but it's only the first. We still have at least 2 more to go!! (Hope this wasn't too much info)

(Once I opened to door to see if Kayden needed help and this was what I found.)
