Yesterday Rhonda tried something new with John and his potty training. She put some pullup underwear on him, and said if he went in the potty chair, he could pick out a video to watch. Well, that apparently didn't work too well. He went in his pants. But then, she just took off his pants and diaper, letting him run around bare (with a shirt, and the heat turned up a bit) and that apparently served as a good reminder for him, because he then went in the potty chair by himself several times. Rhonda had brought down the chair and put it by the front door, and several times he went over to and used it on his own. He didn't have any accidents that way.
At bedtime then, he used it one more time, and then I put his diaper on and jammies, got him to bed, and when Rhonda came home from the church, she went into say goodnight, and checked his diaper and he had already gone in his diaper.
But then, he did his job this morning. I brought down the chair and he went right over and used it. (And then said I want to watch Baby Van Gogh!) So, he can do it. Will just have to keep up with this, and hopefully it will start to become habit.
Hanna is watching big brother, and she'll go over there too and try to sit on it. I suppose it's a bit easier to train siblings because they see the example of the older one.
