Potty training...

I know she's smiling here, but the girl HATES the potty. We have been really trying to potty train for about the last 2 months and she just absolutely hates to even sit on the thing...there have been no successful attempts thus far. The other night we were at Walmart and I bought

some mini cadburry eggs (yummy!) and Makenna loved them...like LOVED THEM! So, I had this idea to make the cadburry eggs the special treat if she pees/poops in the potty. So we try it out. She wanted one so bad but I told her she has to pee in the potty to get one. Oh, she did not like that. Cried and kept saying, "I want a chock it egg." So, I had this bright idea to model for her. So, I said watch and listen Makenna and proceeded to drop my pants and use my potty. I told her to listen so she could hear me pee. Then I said, "Mommy pee peed in her potty so she gets a chocolate egg." and opened one up and ate it. Oh, that just set her off big time. At the top of her lungs and in a very mean voice, "I WANT A CHOCK IT EGG!" hehehehe


Now bath time on the other hand she loves...she would stay in there forever if I let her. She loves to line up all of her cups and leggos on the tub and then pour water into them all, dump them out, and repeat.

How precious! Sounds like she is a little stubborn which is not all bad. Oh by the way, welcome to Megan's blog world. I hope you don't mind that I am enjoying being part of your world. (Megan and Josh's mom)
