Potty training success (well sort of)

Patrick has been a potty going champ.  It seems to just have clicked for him and he is all about it now.  He earned his 5 sticker stars and we went to the store to buy him a prize.  He picked a this water gun thing that blows bubbles. 

Connor didn't seem to care much (even when Patrick was picking his gift) until we got home and Patrick was playing with his "bubble machine".  Call me crazy but I'm not calling it a gun.  So I am hoping that this prize jealousy will spur Connor to want to try the potty too.

I have to say though, the one thing I have really learned is that you can't force the issue.  It only stressed everyone out and sure enough when they are ready, they will do it.

So the potty is going sort of well and we are surviving this rainy week.  Don't ask me about naps though.

This time of month is when I take the picture.  Let's see the results of 2 months of diet and lots of exercise.
