Fantastic things called M&M's

Late May Lucius decided to start potty training, not that we his parents were quite ready, but he sure was. It's been about two and a half months and he's about ninety percent on the number 1's. It's been a battle for number 2 training.

UNTIL... sunday morning. Lucius got up and actually did it! Last week we introduced M&M's to the bathroom. We told Lucius "Poop in the toilet and they'll be M&M's for all!" So early sunday morning the family was snacking on a few chocolate drops of happiness.

Later before nap I asked him to go potty and he squeezed out another one. Hooray. Again after nap he tried but he informed me "no poop coming out". I rewarded him for trying, like I said it's been tough couple weeks training so any step in the right direction is praise worthy to me.

He's been clean for the past few days- not saying it's all good. I assume there'll be a few accidents still to come, but I'm happy to report potty training success is on the horizon.
