Potty Training Day One...

Well Logan did pretty well for his first day of potty training. We had a screaming fit in the morning when we took the diapers away and he peed on the carpet up in his room, but after that we got him to go in the potty once and put on a pull-up, which he then peed in two seconds later, so we ditched the pull-ups and let him go naked with pj pants on. We set out kitchen timer and every time it went off he had to sit on the potty, and he went pee and poops each time although it was usually a struggle to get him to sit down, but he was better with it by the end of the day. He had a couple of accidents through out the day, but over all he did pretty good. When I walked in the door after getting back from skating I asked him if he had to go pee pee and he said yes and ran over to the potty and went all by himself, before the timer went off, whoo hoo!! He had one more accident after I got home from skating and then we put him in a diaper for bed. (he will get a diaper for bedtime until we are out of diapers then it will just be pull-ups at night). He was rewarded with a new Thomas Trackmaster set after he went a few times on the potty today and he also got a few suckers as well. Hopefully we will make so more progress tomorrow, but overall we are happy with the way the first day went. By the last time he had an accident in his pj bottoms he really didn't' like the wet feeling and it got him a little upset, so hopefully that was a turning point and he will do his best to avoid feeling wet tomorrow!
