We had a couple reasons to celebrate today. First of all, today is Uncle Seth and Aunt Ann's anniversary! Secondly.........*drum roll please*........Brian used the potty today!!!!!!!!! He is in no way potty trained yet, but it was still a banner day at our house!
While Brian is playing at home, often times he will go through the motions of some things he does when he is at preschool. He sings the songs they sing ("clean up clean up, every body do your part.") The kids have a routine that happens each day before they have snack time. That routine is what Brian was recreating today. "Everyone needs to go potty and then wash their hands!" He may have just been playing but when Mommy heard him say this, she put his idea into action!
We have not had a lot of luck at home with Brian wanting to use the bathroom. He does at least try when he's at school though. We don't know what the success rate of his school bathroom breaks is but we do know that he did a great job at home today! I'm guessing that Brian's teacher probably doesn't cheer, clap and jump around quite as much as Mommy did today but that's okay. He got his "potty prize" (2 M&M candies) and he was thrilled about it!
