...Still Going

Ok so it's mid-week and I promised an update! I was putting it off hoping I could just post...."and she's potty trained!" Well that, of course, is not my luck!

She is doing OK...the accidents happen when she is in time-out (probably to punish me for putting her there) and when we are headed in the house from being on one of our mini outings...I guess she's too eager to wait 'til we get inside!

I was having one of "those" mornings today where Hailey was being such a little booger...so of course she got a few times-outs...followed by a few accidents!

Until it arrived...da da daaaa...the Potty Watch! I ordered it last week and was eagerly awaiting it's arrival...thinking that maybe it will be like magic and help us finally finish this process. You can set a tamper proof timer to go off every 30, 60, or 90 minutes...it then lights up and plays a potty song! She loves it and hops right on pot whenever she hears it.
Yep it's shaped like a potty...you might think to yourself ..."how dorky a watch shaped like a potty." It can be shaped like a piece of poop for all I care...if it keeps her dry, it's my best friend!
I'll keep updated, hopefully my next post will be as a proud parent of a potty trained kid!...and if you are bold enough and to buy one of these for your child visit: http://www.onestepahead.com/ and type "potty watch"

I hope it works for you!
Can't wait for an update.

Ha! I wouldn't care what it was shaped like, either (I'm now singing "Mr. Hanky, the Christmas Poo" from South Park for some reason). Looks like she is ready for the whole process. Sadly, Erik is totally resistant with no end in sight. But something like this might just help him eventually. I'll keep the link in my faves.

I love that idea...it is so wonderful. And I'm glad it is working for her so far!!! I hope she continues to stay dry!!

How do you make your child look so stylish for a day at home of potty training?!?!

Noel said...

I bought this very watch online a few days after your post. I had another friend that mentioned it before but I totally forgot about it until your post. It should be here any day!!

Jen,
I want a potty watch. I laughed so hard reading about it. Jason thinks it's too late for me, but I hate potty training!!! Kaylynn is doing pretty well now, but last week I thought I was going to loose my mind.
Good luck!! :-)
