Potty Training

Since April 12 Beckett has been potty training.  I hesitated to post about it because I wasn't sure how it would go and I didn't want to jinx it.  In usual Beckett fashion he has taken to it quickly and is doing a great job!

I can't take credit for starting him training.  I wasn't ambitious to start him because of all the changes we've had lately, and let's face it - it's not the easiest to race to the potty when you have another child hanging on your boob!   Three other kids happened to be training at daycare and Beckett did not want to be left out.  So, an ambitious Angela and peer pressure started our potty training adventure. 

He loves to wear his big boy underwear and loves sitting on the "big potty" and the little potty that plays music when he goes.  He also loves the "Potty Dance" song from Huggies (clearly a marketing ploy to promote expensive Pull Ups!)  And I'm not sure who thought it was a good idea to put a character on the butt of undies, because Beckett insists on wearing those pairs backwards so he can see the character.  Oh well, as long as he's wearing the undies and not going in them I can handle them being on backwards.  Way to go Beckett Russell!     

 Beckett and Maddie gives 2 thumbs up for using the potty chair.
 Beckett is very pumped that Lightning McQueen is on Pull Ups.
 I'm sure the neighbors enjoyed Beckett dancing on the porch in his undies.  =)

Houston and Chase also potty training.  Gotta love peer pressure!
