Regroup...
Remember this post?? Well, after a week of minimal success, I crawled back in to my parental happy place. And now he (kidlet #2) is back in diapers. I'm not proud of myself. I think I doomed the situation by anticipating failure. My failure. I just needed a little time to assess where I felt I was going wrong. I needed to regroup. I needed to have a plan. And I need a backbone for this parenting task. I don't know how some people are able to have their tykes potty-trained in a few short days with little or no effort. They don't need a plan. It just sort of seems to happen. Oh how I envy them. So. As of this writing, a certain someone is still in diapers. It's just a little poo poo and pee pee, right? I can do this!!

I am zero help! I actually just waited until Sarah wanted to potty train :( Being that I am not one for battles and she is a stubborn soul...she waited until 3 yrs old! Thought Mom in law was going to have a fit :) One day, Sarah looked at me and said she didn't like diapers any more and from that day on she was done....I can't say I did a thing! Good parenting...bad parenting...I don't know but some things will happen. I just kept saying that when she was in high school I was sure she wouldn't be going around in diapers. Thankfully I was right!
You can do it. It's not fun, but it has to be done sooner or later. That is what I have to keep telling myself. Just remember that I am in the potty training trenches with you! It didn't happen as fast as I hoped as well, but every day is a new day and hopefully Cason will get it eventually. We are on the 6th week now and only half way there.
