Aunt B's Potty Plan

By Austin

 

Hello, Friends! As you know, my parents set goals for me in 2011. I was able to crush goal #1 before the new year even started, and goal #2 was a piece of cake! Goal #3 is a different story. You see, goal #3 is just very inconvenient for me. They actually want me to stop what I'm doing so I can go sit on the big boy potty. They are constantly asking me if I need to go potty. Every couple of hours I have to drop my toys and say "not yet" when they ask if I need to go potty. Can you see how this goal is kind of cramping my style? 

My mom told my Aunt B that she should come up with a potty training plan because she did such a great job with goal #2. I thought I'd take a minute to share her plan with you...I think it's really great because it involves "new tasty treats" when I go potty!

Each time I go potty I get to pick out a new treat from one of the special "potty treat jars." I helped my mom fill them with all of my favorites...MeeMees (M&Ms), Kat Bars (Kit-Kats) and Twix.

We moved them to the cabinet by the bathroom after we had them full of "yummy yummy treats." Progress has been slow, but we're getting there. My favorite time to use the potty is right after everyone is snug in their beds. I like to tell my mom that I'm need to go "pee-pee" and get a "new tasty treat" right before falling asleep. You know the best part? She can't tell me no!

 

Now if you'll excuse me, I have work to do!
