I got the potty chair out several weeks ago. I know Andrew isn't ready yet for potty training, but I thought he could at least practice sitting on it. Tonight we had a major triumph-he went potty in it! My mom had suggested putting him on when we change his diaper, which is what I did tonight when getting ready for bed. After having Sophia demonstrate what to do, reading books and trying to bribe him with a cookie, we'd had no success. However, knowing the alternative was going to bed, his "all done" soon turned into insistence on staying on the potty chair. Finally, Sophia and I left the room and I told him to let me know when he was done. Less than 30 seconds later, he got up, we went in and he had gone! Sophia and I made a huge deal of it and yes, he did get his cookie!
In other news:
Sophia got a booster seat today. She was so excited about it. It's quite girly-check out those flowers (picture to come)!
Andrew had his 2-year check-up yesterday. He weights 26 1/2 pounds, which puts him at the 25 percentile. He is 33 3/4 inches tall, also at the 25 percentile. No shots-that made us both happy.
