Potty Training Take 3

Potty training has been a nightmare with Luke. For a reminder of potty training take 2  Click here. The other day we were watching the Lego Movie and there is a big ad for Lego Land at the beginning. Luke said he wanted to go to Lego Land. I told him if he starts going pee pee in the potty we'll go. He proceeded to take off his pants and diaper and sit on his little potty. That night he sat there for 2 hours and nothing came out. He cried him self to sleep because "pee pee wouldn't come out". The next morning we kept him naked from the waist down and he went potty several times in the potty! After the first time he started for the car ready to go to Lego Land. I made him a chart and told him every time he went he would get a sticker and when the chart was full we'd go.

We were already planning on going to my parents' house in ten days (they are 1/2 hour from Lego Land) so it was perfect timing. Over the next week he did great. Hardly any accidents at all! Mind you, this was at home naked. He filled up his chart and got to fulfill his little dream. He LOVED it. Throughout the day he would break into song, "Everything is awesome", the Lego Movie song. We got season passes, so we will be returning.

Fast forward a few weeks. He is now fully potty trained AT HOME, naked from the waist down, in the little potty. We have just started the transition from naked to underwear. Once we master that we'll try potty outside the home. It is slow going, but its going. Halleluiah.

This kid.
