A Successful Day

January 11, 2008

Nine pee’s, three little poops, and one big poop on the potty with only one accident – makes this a very successful Day in the Life of Potty Training Chase.  I think Chase got a hold of Casey’s juice (with miralax in it) and drank some yesterday.  He usually doesn’t go #2 this much.  At least it gave him practice with it.  :)   He also woke up dry from a 2 hour nap. 

At the beginning of the day we made a list of people that he wanted to call after he had his successes on the potty.  Sponge Bob was one.  So in the middle of the day after some successes, I had Steve call and pretend he was Sponge Bob.  Steve is very good at voices and Chase was convinced it was Sponge Bob.  Casey was home by then (1/2 day today) and I had the speaker phone on.  She was convinced too!  It was hilarious.  Then Chase asked to speak to Patrick and Planktin (two other characters).  So Chase heard Sponge Bob say that he was proud of him for going on the potty.  GO Steve!  Chase also really likes, “Super Readers”.  It’s a show called “Super Why”, but he calls it Readers.  I was going to have him “call”, but the voice isn’t really unique.  Maybe another day.

Tomorrow we’re making a trip to Lancaster to see Gramme.  I’m a little nervous how it’s going to go in the car and then being distracted at other houses.  We’ll just have to remember to take him often and be sure to bring extra clothes.

Overall, a great day!  More than I expected.  We are very very proud of him!

  1. Wow that is just awesome, bet tomorrow will be just as great! Go Chase!


  2. yay! I told Caleb the good news and he was very happy for you Chase!


  3. Wow! That is excellent. A 1000 times better than Samantha’s first day. She had over 7 pee accidents the first day. It made it a very long first day for us. I can’t believe he woke up dry from nap. Samantha’s diapers are still soaked over 2 weeks after starting potty training.
    Go Chase!
