potty training 1.. 2... 3....

so.... potty training!!
(this may be too much info for some)
we did the 3 day potty training technique, which takes a LOT of time and dedication from mama but its definately affective!although... we do still have accidents and definately wouldnt say he's totally potty trained. but every day there is an improvement!
so basically we stayed home for 3 days and i just followed him round watching for his signs and rushing him to the potty whenever he needed!oh and did i mention u throw away your nappy's!!so its undies only from now on!so day one we went through say 40 undies at least, he'd dribble run to the potty, he wouldnt really do anything on the potty put dry undies on, get back out to the lounge and he'd have wet undies again, and that would happen about 7 times in 4 mins before he finally got all his pee out!!haha so yeah, we went through lots of undies!
but then by day two we were down to say 20 undies a day and he was actually peeing on the potty, and day 3 we went through say 10 undies a day. pretty much the poops have all happened on the potty , its catching the pee's in time.
and so today is day six, and kingston didnt wet his bed last night, comes out of his room and says potty and we've had dry undies all morn and 2 pee's on the potty!

so we'll keep at it and hopefully our undies per day figure comes down more and more each day!!:)

so some pics of all the things we did to entertain our selves

we had lots of fun playing with the trains

showing off his fav undies
