Potty training is fun... yeah, right and the sky is green! Today marks the beginning of a lifelong adventure for Philip... he is learning to use the POTTY!! We decided that what better way to learn to use the potty than to do it with one of your best friends, so Elmo... good luck- it looks like you are joining in on the fun! It started out good this morning with Philip watching his potty video while sitting on his potty next to Elmo (or Melmo as Philip calls him) sitting on his potty. However after about the third time through of the video... Philip started crying as he wanted to wear his new thomas and diego big boy underwear... you think, well thats a good start except the problem is that he wants to wear all of them at the same time and while sitting on the potty. He doesn't understand that he cant sit on the potty with his underwear on not to mention 3 pairs of underwear on!! Then we explained how every time he goes on the potty he gets m&m's and of course that just started meltdown #2 as he started screaming crying for some m's right then - he didn't want to wait till he went on the stupid potty... oh the life of living in the moment as a two year old. And then lastly as if wasnt already bad enough, his daddy who is a little hungover today from celebrating Jay Levell's bday last night said under his breath if I hear that dang potty song one more time, I am going to throw that stupid potty out the window!! Well lets just say nothing gets past Philip these days and so he started throwing the potty all over the room and laughing! So... we are 6 hours in on day 1 and so far, nothing has gone into the potty except Elmo!
And of course we couldn't leave Parker out... so he joined in by sitting in his bumbo
