Potty Party!

Chugga chugga POO POO - Jack officially hopped on the potty train this week! He's done great and we're so proud of him. We used the same technique as we did with Sawyer and it's going great. Being pregnant while potty training is tough though. My patience threshold isn't high and it's hard on my 'relaxed' joints to sit in one spot for so long! But we made it through and had some fun while at it. It is now the end of day 3, with only one accident all day. He always made the important ones in the pot, for which I'm thankful. By Day 2 at noon I was thinking I may have started him too early because he was only getting in about 25% of the pees and I was getting frustrated, but we pushed through and he (mostly) gets it now. Yay!! He hasn't had any problems waking up dry from naps/nights so that's been a blessing as well. Now we'll be a diaper-free home at least for a couple months ;) I'm hoping this is enough in advance before the next baby comes so that Jack won't revert since I've heard that's a common problem with new babies around. Time will tell. I'm sure he'll do great :)


He is SO adorable. Even on the potty :)


The morning of Day 1 - salty snacks and a variety of drinks to get the process started!


This photo is hilarious...he's not grunting, this is his smile for the camera. Hahaha! Oh yes, and sometimes he prefers the turkish squat (that's what it's called in Albania).

First stop in the morning - potty. Such a good papa.

Nap time - I was semi worried about getting peed on...I had nothing to worry about!

We went through a LOT of books - very entertaining!

Big time reward - watching a show!

M&M reward!

Sawyer the sidekick always cheering him on. Every time he went in the potty Sawyer asked if we were going to celebrate...OF COURSE!!

Jack - the potty hero! Getting to be such a big boy!
