POTTY TRAINING!

Mommy and daddy have decided to try the 3 day potty training method with Cooper – starting bright and early tomorrow morning.  This is basically where you leave your child naked for three days, hunker down in the house, and whisk them to the potty every time they start to pee or poo.   Except for nap and nighttime, he won’t wear any diapers or pants at all. 

GOD HELP US!

We weren’t sure if 18 months was too early or not, but we thought we’d give it a try.

We got the house all ready tonight so we can start first thing in the morning and we explained to Cooper what will happen.  Who knows if he understood or not, but boot-camp starts in the morning!

Here’s a few pictures of the prepped house!

Potty’s ready to go.  The main bathroom has Cooper’s potty we plan to use most of the time.

The other bathroom has our travel potty on it.

And the kitchen/living room has a stand alone potty – if we have to whisk him to a potty quickly.

The bathroom has a treat jar all ready to go – baby smarties and chocolate chips.  He’ll get ONE for every time he has a HIT.  Meaning anytime, any amount of pee or poop gets in the potty.   He never gets sugar, so this should be a real big reward!

The Carpets all rolled up and stored away.
