Potty Time!

Tonight was a BIG night for Cohen. I have been saying for awhile now that I need to get Cohen a potty chair, so today while we were at target I finally picked one up. Tonight before dinner we opened it Cohen was very excited to see what it was and seemed to know it was his very own mini toilet. Eric put batteries in it (its a neat one that sings songs has a pretend flusher on it) Cohen was so excited he was trying to sit on it right there, so I took off his diaper he sat down and... PEE PEED! Eric and I were pretty surprised... so we cheered and made a big fuss over him for a few minutes. I took the potty in the bathroom and Cohen just couldn't get enough of it.. it was the funnest thing! He peed 3 or 4 more times he wont sit long enough to finish because he kept getting up to took at it and then thinks he needs to dump it. I went out to get something and came back in and he was dumping the tray in the big toilet and there was poop in it! Wow if I had known he was going to take to it this easy I would have bought him one a long time ago! I'm sure the new will wear off but at least we are off to a good start!
My camera was dead so I didn't get any of the excitement of him opening it and trying it.. this is before getting into the bath tub...such a big boy!!

That is so cool! Congrats! I hope he keeps it up! We have a potty for Benjamin and he likes sitting on it and he'll tell me sometimes when he has to go, but he refuses to have his diaper off. So it makes it kind of hard to potty train if he always has his diaper on!!! Anyway, good luck and I hope you guys are well! I hear we get to see you in July! Should be fun! Take care,
Andee
