Last Friday, we started the process of Potty Training. WOW! Didn't know that a kid lil'A's size could hold that amount of water and then let it out once every 3 minutes - just enough time to get back from the b-room and for Mommy to clean up.
"Cinderella" seems to be one of my middle names. yikes.
It's all about positive reinforcement. How many times do I praise dry ones and reminding her to tell us etc.
+ the middle name "Quinn". She's head cheerleader on Glee. "Hi, my name is Kat and I'm a GleeK."
Rewards for exceptional work - aka potty success with no mess - is another part of it.
+ "Oscar" let's give out the award for best use of a toilet bowl. Maybe we should call the award "the Golden Plunger".
There is only so much "playing" a toddler can endure with Mommy so, Mommy has to produce some sort of visual entertainment. Bring on the finger puppets.
+ "Heigl" is an alternative last name. (If you don't know, katherine heigl is an actress on Grey's Anatomy, 27 Dresses, and Roswell.
When puppets get old, requests for movies come out. Feel like a Disc Jockey (DVD).
+ "DJ"
Oh yeah, food and drink - LOTS of drink. Hm.... Famous chef... Jamie Oliver works non?
+ "Jamie"
And lastly (that I can think of for now), here I am documenting our fun in a rather unique way. Award winning article perhaps?
+ "Pulitzer"
WOW, I didn't have so many names this week.
"Kathryn QUINN OSCAR HEIGL DJ JAMIE PULITZER Webster"
Please take this all in jest. Phew, and the week isn't even over yet.
