Houston, we have peepee in the potty.

After completely surrendering to my little 3 year old stubbornness. We had given up on potty training for a while. With the attitude "all things in time". I knew he would do it soon enough. Recently he had been asking me to buy batman fruit roll ups. Which I had done before. But I'm not a big advocate of expensive fruit snacks. So they were on sale with the frys mega 10 event, and I had a coupon so I think the box ended up costing me somewhere around $1.00. When I was unloading the grocery's Wednesday night his eyes lit up when he saw them. They quickly shown the look of heart wrenching sadness when I told him he could only have one when he pooped, or peed in the potty. Sucker! So this morning he told me he needed to go pee in the potty. We sat on the toilet quite a few times with no luck. So I hopped in the shower. When I was just about done he came running in my room. "I did it! I did it!" Sure enough he had. I was trying not to get my hopes up. But today he has had 4 fruit roll ups, and no accidents. I was even shocked when he received one for going #2. This took weeks to get down with Jaren. I know we will probably still have accidents, and such. But I am just so ecstatic that he is finally ready, and willing.
p.s. I spared you all pictures for obvious reasons.

p.p.s On another note Tate has started crawling. He hasn't gotten to far, but he is up on all fours moving. He has also started sitting up by himself, YAY!!

Hey Lori! This past week I stopped reading because I was so lucky in being asked to give a talk in Sacrament meeting. ;( I'll admit, I'm glad it's over. I Started reading last night. Okay... I have to say this... does Bella stop griping? As I'm reading, I want to strangle her or say " stop being a baby!" Am I the only one that feels that way? Does it get better? And yes, Richard, I believe has had an influence on Jordan about reading these books. I'm gunna have to work on Jordan:) And you work on Richard:)
