I wanted to do it 100% different from last time.
Here are some differences from Round 1 and 2...
DISCUSSION:
Round 1: I didn't prep them. We just started on some random Monday.
Round 2: We had a Potty Party, and have been discussing the throne in all its glory since round 1.
We had streamers, balloons, paper goods...
We had presents and pull ups...
PREPARATION:
Round 1: I went to the dollar store THE day we were to start. Picked out things, but they knew what they were and wanted them right then. Picked out their underwear, but then they were scared cause they figured out what we were doing.
Round 2: I had all the toys already, and we had been talking about how we can't play with them until we go on the potty! I also wrapped all the underwear they peed through the first time and had been washed. They thought they were all new underwear. It was funny!
We had a huge "taking off our diaper and putting on a big kid undies" ceremony.
WHOLEHEARTEDLY:
Round 1: Not really! I had friends over and was leaving to go places. I hadn't bought pull ups yet. I was not into it myself, therefore neither were my kids. I kept forgetting to tell them to try. I was not in it wholeheartedly!
Round 2: I am not buying anymore diapers, and I don't have a couple to fall back on! It is now! Tyson brought home this amazing surgical mat (it goes over a patient in surgery) and it repells everything. It sits in our living room, they sit on it, and there has been an accident on it, but it is like water on a ducks back.
We have these books that my mom sent the twins.
There is a cute story, amazing pictures, and then a crown (B) and a pirate hat (M) to put stickers on. They love them. I love them.
Here are a couple of my favorite pages...
The words are the best!
Gentle forest creatures? Really? I love it!
We have pull ups. We have LOTS of juice. Things like this happen right now at our house.
We have had 6 pees and 2 poos in the toilet and only 2 accidents! I think we are on the right track!
