On Sunday we were having some rebel potty issues. Nathan decided to pee in his pants. I kind of got a little madder than I should have, but in my defense I was the one who had to completely disassemble a car seat and wash it and reassemble it.
He was still mad at me for punishing him, so at dinner not an hour later he peed AGAIN. This time I let it slide.. I pulled him aside later and explained how going in the potty makes me "SOOO HAPPY". Brian had gotten a shower w/ the boys and as usual they run off naked and play the catch me game. Nathan was dry and ran away, I was finishing drying Jacob when I hear "I went pop poo"... being yelled from another room. I frantically went to find out what he was yelling about. He greets me and says "MOM, I MADE A HALF MOON" and much to my dismay, I was infact half moon shaped (and in his potty!!!). So proud he was acting good again, we just celebrated. About 5 mins later he yells "MOM I have to go AGAIN", so we run to the potty. I leave him there for a minute when I hear him yell "MOM I MADE A SNAKE."
So proud again we celebrated w/ ice cream.
He wakes up this morning. Sits on the potty and I ask him "Do you need to go poo poo?"
He replys "I want to make a STAR poo poo". My reply "Good luck with that" I figured this is not where I shatter his dreams and tell him he can do anything he sets his heart to do. LOL
You could always use a cookie cutter and make him think he did it.
