Potty Training Update

I wouldn't say we've stopped progressing but I would say my little potty prodigy has become less interested in sitting on the toilet. Sometimes he still does really well but other times he'll try for about 2 seconds before he hops off and runs away.

Talking on the phone while taking care of business is not a behavior Spencer has seen mommy or daddy do, he just loves the phone and it was a good way to get him to sit still.

Usually after he has gone potty he'll grab one of his stuffed animals and sit them on the toilet.
Here he is wiping Mr. Bear with a square of toilet paper. Although I fear he'll one day drop his animal in the toilet when I'm not looking I think Spencer potty training his animals is a good way to reinforce what we've been working on.

After trying on the potty Spencer will wash his hands, which is a mini reward in itself, he LOVES to play in the water. Then he gets to watch some "boo" (Veggie Tales or other nursery rhyme type songs on Youtube). Depending on how he behaved while going potty determines how many songs he gets to watch. A job well done will earn him three songs (approximately 10 minutes).

I need to start putting him in underwear instead of diapers. I'm sure that would help motivate him to stay dry.
