Training Success

We have had an exciting 3 days potty training and we couldn't be more proud of Jaxson. I'll give a quick re-cap of our days:

Day 1:
We started off the day by getting excited about our new big boy underwear. Next we got a big box and went around the house collecting diapers to put in the box and send to Baby Carter. We wrote a note to Baby Carter about being a big boy, taped up the box and Jaxson carried the box to the garage and that was the end of the diapers.













We filled the day with lots of activities and lots and lots of juice. He did SO great. We had a few accidents, but nothing major at all. The day ended with a grand total of 6 pairs of underwear for the day.




















Day 2:
We were feeling really good about the day before and decided to make a few trips away from the house to see how Jaxson would do. After the afternoon nap we headed over to a party at the neighbors house and Jaxson had a blast playing with all of the kids. He did not have one accident at all, we were SO proud of him. After the party we headed out to Lake Georgetown to see Aunt Stephanie and Uncle Jared. They have a travel trailer which has a different potty than Jaxson is use to...which he loved! We made a few un-necessary trips into the potty just to try the flusher. We had one little "oops" while we were there but otherwise he did great and told us multiple times that he had to go to the bathroom. We ended day 2 with 3 changes of underwear.























Day 3:
The final day Jaxson amazed us all and finished off the day with ZERO accidents. We kept this little man very busy and very distracted today so this last day was a huge test for him. This morning we went to church. After church and a nap we made a trip up to the library to play and get some new books. After that Colton and his family came over to play. The boys ran, jumped, screamed, chased and had a absolute blast!! They were both practically dripping in sweat from going non-stop and Jaxson kept up with that little four year old without missing a beat. He reminded us several times during the day that he was a big boy and his mickey mouse underwear was dry- we couldn't be more proud.



This sticker chart shows the hard work that he put into the last three days and the final certificate is his success in showing us that he IS a BIG BOY!!!

Ok, you are going to have to tell me excatly how you did all of this. I am almost finished with school, so I thought I would start Brady with potty training. When, where, how, and all the questions. Where did you find the chart? Brady loves Cars too! Thanks Michelle!
