Potty Training!!

WOW!!!  this is the most ANNOYING thing ever!! 
I do not have the patience for this!! we sat on the potty for literally 30 minutes and i got nothing out of him other then a bunch of laughs and him explaining to me that the thing in between his legs is a "pee" haha.

how you mothers out there do it.... idk but i have found a new appreciation for you. lol i even sat on the toilet with him to show him that mommy goes potty too... still nothing!!

 <<< In this pic... he was looking up at me laughing cuz i kept saying "potty" " potty" haha and he thinks that's the funniest thing ever!



In order to get him to sit that long i had to bribe him with his bottle or as he likes to call it his " BA".  lol now how funny do i look. Trying to potty train a kid who is still attached to his bottle. 

My idea to potty train him was because i really thought he was ready. Anytime he goes pee or poop he will automatically run to me and tell me and then start trying to take off his diaper. So i was like hey!! he knows when he goes, now i just gotta get him to know BEFORE he goes so he can make it to the potty.

I think the only thing about this whole process that he likes is the fact he gets to wear "DIEGO" pull ups instead of diapers... he keeps looking at the pull-ups and pointing to Diego.. its adorable. Now if only i could get him that excited about his "potty".

 
They actually had the coolest potty at Target. It had a little flusher that made the noise and everything. But it was 39.99!! seriously!! haha i thought that was insane. But now...... I'm actually considering it. I gotta get this kid excited about it cuz right now he could care less.....

I have found motherhood to be exceptionally easy.. UNTIL NOW!! everyone told me your soo lucky you have a boy, they are a piece of cake to potty train. Okay... all you people that told me that.. gets your asses over here and give me some pointers. 

And along with the pointers on potty training, give me some on how to ditch the bottle too!! Otherwise I'm gunna have a handsome little boy walking into kindergarten wearing Diego pull-ups and having a bottle with tonka trucks on it hanging from his mouth!!
