Potty

Posted in Journal

We decided we would buy a potty for little Jaxon.  We want him to be familiar with the potty and hopefully get him interested sooner rather than later.  I feel like a diaper changing assembly line some days and two kids in diapers is no fun!  So, we’re not potty training, but we sure are talking about things. 

Jaylyn is convinced that we ARE potty training Jaxon and she feels it is her job to do it.  Not that I’m complaining but her tactics aren’t working too well.  She runs up to Jaxon, tells him he needs to potty, takes him by the arm, and drags him to the bathroom.  Somehow I think she’s hurting my cause rather than helping it. 

However, it is so cute to see Jaxon sitting on his little potty seat facing the potty while Jaylyn sits on the big potty and reads him a book.  The water runs, Jaylyn reads the potty book, and she asks him if he needs to potty.  And we’ve actually had success twice. 

So, if nothing else.  He’s at least becoming a little more aware of things and maybe he’ll be ready shortly after he turns two.  Or maybe I’m being optimistic.  We’ll see.
