I finally decided to start the process. Just recently, Kyle has started showing a couple of signs he may be ready to learn about the potty. Well, as a first time mom I'm thinking they are signs.
There are so many different types of "chairs" out there...ones that are just plain and simple to chairs with all the bells and whistles. Typically, things for Kyle I usually want to go with the ones that have everything, but for this I decided to go with one that is in between. The one I chose is the Fisher Price Royal Potty. It has a sensor so when he does have success it plays music. I figured this wouldn't be a distraction to Kyle...hope I am correct.
Kyle has a Potty Time With Elmo book and four Thomas The Train board books only to be used when he is on the potty. Honestly, at this point I really just want to introduce him to it...today he was very cooperative, but didn't have any success. Of course, I did take a couple of pictures, but didn't think everyone would really want to see them. I am attaching a picture of his new potty chair and his new books for the special occassion.
I know there are tons of books on the market on this subject. I am tempted to order a book called "Potty Training Made Easy In 3 Days". Does anyone have any experience with potty training? If so, any advice, suggestions, etc. would be greatly appreciated.
Happy New Year! We are hoping for a happy and healthy 2009! We will be spending a low key day at home. We believe, if we start the new year off "boring" then possibly the remainder of the year will be "boring". I use the word boring in the sense that we won't have any major "drama". Since John and I have been married we have had two years of stressful "drama" and since then we enjoy quiet and boring. My main resolution for 2009 is to potty train Kyle...I have my fingers crossed I will succeed. I like to hear other people's resolutions, so please share yours with me.
