Need More Time

I know I'm supposed to post about Coleman's birthday, BUT . . . right now we are in the middle of trying to potty train Coleman. I feel like I only get short 5 minute spans on the internet to do anything, which means, definitely not enough time to upload the Gazillion pictures I have. With a whole lot of hoping and a huge amount of luck, Coleman will get the whole idea of the potty down soon, and I'll be able to spend a bit more time to blog. Until then, please feel free to give me any tips or advice, so I don't stick this kid back in diapers and call it good! :)

Good luck, Meg!! I will need your pointers & advice in a few years when my little guy is ready! Hope you are doing well otherwise!

Just stick with it! Don't confuse him by putting him in a pull-up or diaper. Even when you go to the store or church...I know thats a lot easier said than done (and believe me, a lot more frustrating) but he won't "get it" if he's being switched back and forth. Anyhow, my tip is once you start don't stop and do it 100% even through the frustrations! Good-luck!!!

I agree with every word the Robinsons said. Stick with it, if you put him back in diapers you will just be dealing with it again in a couple months.

Also when we wanted to go somewhere to get outside, we would just make Elizabeth go before we left the house and then when we got to where ever we were going. Also we brought an extra change of clothing for a little while to.
