Jonathan Wears CHONNIES!!!!!

July 18, 2014
Isaiah 4 years old, Jonathan 2.5 years old

Little by little Jonathan had been warming up to the idea of going "pee-pee on the potty."  It started with him continuously waking up with a dry diaper every morning.  I would immediately take it off  and have him go sit on the potty.  Once he got to liking/accepting that, when he would wake up from his daily nap with a dry diaper we would do the same thing.  And then it became, "oh!  your diaper's still dry?" (at different times of the day)..."let's go sit on the potty."  Once his confidence in that started to take off, we knew the bribing trick would have him fully potty-trained.  Jaime told him we would take him and his brother to pick out a new train if he went poop-poo on the potty.  Three days later, the deed was done and Jonathan was officially wearing chonnies, ALL DAY, Everyday!!!

*Isaiah was a huge support of Jonathan learning to use the potty.  Every time Jonathan would be trying to go, he would come into the bathroom and  cheer him on "you can do it Johnjohn" or high five him and tell him, "good job" after the deed was done.  He was such a PROUD big brother...may be small to some, but I love how he genuinely supported his little bro.
