Potty Training Update

I haven't given a potty training update since we started which was the beginning of the year sometime. That is because Hayden was doing really good for a little while then he gave up on it. It could have been partly our fault for not keeping up with it ourselves. We just kept forgetting. Well, I thought it is really time to crack down on this and get him potty trained. So we started a potty chart and he FINALLY filled his first one all up. We told Hayden that once he filled up his potty chart that we would take him to the toy store and he could pick out a toy. After a few months... he finished! So last week we took him to Toys R Us and after a long hard decision he picked out a crane type truck for his reward. He has been so funny though with going 2 in his pants. He knows he is supposed to go on the potty but I guess he doesn't want to go 2 on there so he gets really quiet and sort of hides out until he is done going. Then he will come back into the room we are in and have this guilty look on his face and sometimes even tattle on himself. That look is just so funny! I can tell immediately what he has done.

He has been doing really good for the past month so hopefully we can stick with the program and he will be using the potty all time (even #2!).
Good Job Hayden! We are proud of you!

He looked and looked for the perfect toy!

He was all about these remote control tractor things but luckily he didn't choose one of those! ($65 for one of those things. YIKES!)

Decisions Decisions! He could not choose between these two! He thought he could have both! Everything with him comes in two's! He's so silly!

The green one it is!! Hayden is headed home to play with his new truck!

Look at my crane Mommy!!

Hayden is already excited about filling up his next potty chart so he can go get the other crane that he wanted. That boy never forgets anything!
