Potty Training

So we have been doing the potty training thing with Tyler for about three weeks now. I finally decided it was time to put my foot down and get him trained. I put it off for so long because he gets these weird panic attack things and I didn't want to set him off and then wind up potty training at 5 or 6. I must have really hyped myself up to think it was going to be so miserable, when in all reality it was actually really simple.

We started the training on Tuesday and by Wednesday night he had it down. He was going on the potty and at one point he started to pee but stopped himself and ran to the potty to go. I think he was doing so good because he got candy, stickers, chips, donuts, as many drinks, as he wanted and he got to watch tv all day for a few days. He was in heaven and all he had to do for this was sit on the potty, what a great thing for him, he didn't even fight it!

I thought because things went so well with him that I would work on Lily the following week, and then when that week came I realized how crazy I was because its Lily and she likes to make things difficult. Although she has gone on the potty a couple of times she has of course peed next to it just as much. She has also fallen into the toilet, put the portable potty seat on her head, put her hands in the pee and licked them, and she tries to pee on the furniture. If you were thinking she sounds like a dog you would be right! Somehow everything she does tends to be more along the lines of what a canine would do. She is smart but very animalistic with lots of things which makes her so difficult to handle!

I know I cant put off training her forever, and I will probably suck it up in a few days and train her, but for now until I can find the right amount of energy to deal with that I have to keep her in onesies otherwise she strips naked and pees on things. Oh the life of owning a human dog!
