We started up potty training again. Timmy woke up with a wet diaper, but we went straight to the potty anyway. Timmy was a little hesitant until Momma told him that if he went poop in the potty, he could have a whole pop all to himself. He literally lept into the air and ran to the potty. As he was trying to squeeze one out, he went pee pee - much to both of our excitement. He repeated this feat five times this morning. Unfortunately, he went pee and poopy in his diaper during his nap time. This probably discouraged him, because he had difficulty for the next few hours. We went to the Commissary on post for groceries and picked out some potty treats to include a case of diet root beer (Timmy loves it) and an assortment of gummy bears and jelly beans (for pee pee treats). Even after we got home, Timmy was having some difficulty. To change notes, we went for an hour and a half hike to Waynesville Park and back with timmy in the green backpack, Sophie on the leash, and Momma's back a little more sore as we went. We had alot of fun. When we came back, Timmy quickly announced, "I wanna go potty." So we rushed to the bathroom, Timmy grunting the whole way, and he went for a long pee pee. We then discovered that he had kept his diaper dry for the whole hike to the park and back. Happy times!
