Shawn's mommy · Posted: August 16 2006, 1:01 AM Post subject: Shawn is poty trainned!!!!

I am so proud of my little guy... I can't believe it he really is potty trained grant it he still will have an accident, but they are very few. he has actually been going #2 on the potty the last few days, goofed once and went in is pants. he even went at my moms!!! I guess I should really say Shawn has me trained because he still really can't tell me he has to go potty, but waits till I put him on the toilet. He is so cute though when he as to go he very quickly holds himself.

just one more big brag... i could just go on all day with him lately...

I work very hard at teaching him new things, our latest is putting puzzles together ones that he has to piece together. i have started with just the 2 pieces... never thought he would get it... yesterday I was walking behind him as he was at his table, he didn't see me and he put all 4 of the 2 piece puzzles together. I was amazed, he waits till I am not looking (little stinker). so than I took all the pieces and put them together in a pile and he waited till I left the room, than he assorted them out.

Thanks for reading, I don't get much time on here right now, I am so busy taking care of my parents that there just is not enough hours in the day for me. I do check in to see how everyone is doing.
God Bless,
Christy

That's great news Christy.

I too am working hard on potty training with Robert since April.

For the first few weeks I forgot to do the sign for potty when I'd say...you want to go potty Robert (make sign).
I have been doing the sign since mid May and last week he started signing that he wanted to used the potty.
I had the home school teacher here so I almost missed it! LOL!
I'd suggest you make the sign when asking him. He'll soon learn to use the sign to tell you he needs to go.

Well done Shawn!

Shawn's doing great! I wouldn't worry about him not telling you - Matt's been out of nappies over 6mths but doesn't tell me, even though I say the word, and sign it every time. I know he'll get it one day! Same with Shawn no doubt.

And WTG on the puzzles. That's great.

Good for you!!! We thought Noah was potty trained numerous times, but he'd always regress. It wasn't until he was 6 that we could say he was 99.9% potty trained. Congratulations!!!
