Rand is finally showing interest in potty training. I don't know how long back it was but there was a day or two where he actually sat down and did some business, but every time since that time we would ask him if he wanted to potty he would say "NO"!!!!!!!!!
And I couldn't even use school for a bribe because although he wanted to go to school from August through December, after the Christmas break, he wanted no part of it except on Easter Egg Hunt Day. And possibly the end of school party.
Well recently he's been asking if he's going back to school! I told him that while they cut him some slack last year, he has to be potty trained to go to 4yr pre-school.
FINALLY yesterday he did his business on the potty. Today he has done business twice on the potty! I'm so excited! I have to say that I had a good bit to clean up (aim is off - just learning) but it was worth it. I'm so proud of him!!!
And I have to say "I LOVE CHOCOLATE MILK"!!!!!!!!!!! That is the bribe that finally worked. M & M's wouldn't even work as an incentive! Or peeing on cheerios!!!! It took the promise of chocolate milk!

Way to go Rand!! I hope the chocolate milk continues to work for you! Big hugs!!! He'll get it when he's ready.
alexander was 4 before it finally kicked in...bless his heart... our dr. just kept telling us that there was no need to force it.. he would go when the time was right... and when he decided we have not had another accident.. so don't lose hope!! hang in there!!
He must really want to go to school this fall. Aww how sweet. It sounds like he's ready so just go with it! He may have his days but he clearly understands what he needs to do :)
Way to go Rand!!!!!! Bring on the chocolate milk!! ;) I hope the trend continues!
