Potty Training Boot Camp Day 7

And so the week has come to a close. We settled into our routine of doing daily laundry to clean Jack's new big boy underwear. I guess I would give the week mixed reviews. Jack definitely has settled into a routine of sitting on the potty pretty often. And he will happily sit there and read, play trains, draw, etc. Oh yeah, and every so often, once in a blue moon, he will actually pee. But not too much because we wouldn't want to make this thing too easy on mommy and daddy.

Our week was filled with emotion. We skirted a sudden diaper rash flare-up and managed to quash it before it got out of control. We learned the "Happy Birthday" song when one of our classmates had it sung to him in class-and Jack has decided that everyone needs to serenaded with happy birthday every few days. We pushed through our Thomas the Train obsession by following mommy's directions that "Thomas must sleep on the tracks in the playroom, not in Jack's bed", thereby avoiding the 2am panic wakeups he had been suffering looking for Thomas in the bed.

Quite a week for the Jackelope.
