Potty Training

Yes. Those are two words I have dreaded for a long time. It is finally time to bite the bullet and start the potty training process. We have bought the cool underwear, bought M & M's for potty treats, filled a basket full of prizes and made potty charts. What more could we need? A little cooperation. I am constantly asking them if they need to go potty or always trying to make them sit on the potty to go and I am getting some resistance. They have all gone only once in the potty but we have spent a lot of time sitting on the potty. I am getting frustrated already, and we just started. I am wanting to get it done before the holidays, but I am beginning to wonder if they will every figure it out.

I have never potty trained boys before, so I am clueless if my approach is going to work. If any of you have any suggestions, I am totally open to them.

I had to share this funny picture of Kayla from the other night. I went in to turn her lamp off and she just looked so cute with her pig and her hair done up in little buns. (The little buns make the girls hair kind of wavy/curly if you put them in wet and let them dry completely.)

Also, a couple of weeks ago, Matt was able to go over to the pool and test the redone water slide. It took them several tries to get the water slide right and this time it was good. Several guys went down this time around and no one got injured. The kids and I were able to go in and watch while they tried it out. It was fun for the kids. (I am pretty sure Matt enjoyed it as well.)
