I'm A Big Kid Now!

We've hit a major milestone in the Brown household. Last night, Keagan went to bed in his big boy underwear and stayed dry all night! So, despite Mommy's worst fears, it looks like he WILL be potty-trained before he heads off to school.

I think there's a reward in store for my big boy.

How Do YOU Avoid Bedtime?



This is how Keagan does it.

Could It Possibly Be

We may have turned a corner on this potty training thing.
A co-worker has twin 3-year-old sons. 1 potty-trained very easily, the other - not so much. So he told me that one time the reluctant son wet his pants - so he marched him into the shower and sprayed him off with water that gradually got colder. He said the boy hadn't had an accident in the week since he did it.

I decided to try it on Keagan. Keagan had never had a shower before - so I didn't even have to use cold water - because the whole shower thing freaked him out (see previous post). But it must have worked. I gave him a shower twice, making sure to tell him that he needed to take a shower if he has an accident. Well - he's gone 2 whole days without having an accident in his underwear.

He's only wearing pull-ups at night (and even then he cries that he doesn't want to wear them anymore).

Now Mommy has to be brave enough to actually take him out in public without a diaper. He might be ready - not sure if I am.

Showers

Keagan needed a bath tonight - but I didn't feel like sitting in there as he splashed me with water. I decided - let's try the shower. The high-pitched screams, crocodile tears and terrified shaking leads me to believe he's not a big fan.
