It's Starting Again



The potty training has commenced in earnest now that the boy understands he get M&M's every time he successfully makes a deposit in his little froggy potty. So far he's managed to get three pees in the thing, still no solids but we're making progress. His sisters have figured out a method of sitting him down and making him drink a bunch of water to make him go, which seems to get results (and therefore candy), but I'm not sure if it addresses the fundamental issue of recognizing when you gotta go and getting to the potty in time. We'll keep reinforcing and rewarding and hopefully he'll get motivated to pay attention to his little bladder.
In other news this week we got a crate of fresh peaches off of Emo's peach tree. We've had em fresh and raw, in crepes, in cobbler, and in peaches and cream. Thanks Emo, they've been great.
