After months of talking about potty training but having various things coming up to distract us. Daniel decided to train Samuel today. I was at work the whole day(I started working for a property management company doing apartment cleaning after tenants move out. I really like it so far.) but I did get to watch a fairly graphic cell phone video of Samuel's successful day. I am really impressed with how well today went. Daniel pushed the fluids big time, and Sam was about 50% successful. Which is crazy to me. I told Daniel that he should of trained ALL the kids, because only Anna was anywhere near that percentage the first day. Lillian and Joseph were 0% on day one. ZERO! Samuel woke up DRY from his nap and peed right away. Which is a really good sign on the first day!Last week Heidi (our respite caregiver) put Sam on the toilet after dinner when she was getting him ready for a bath. He pooped! We were talking about it all weekend, and Daniel just decided to run with it today.
Samuel is in SUCH a dad phase right now, that all this potty training/bonding time is great for him. When Daniel is leaving Sam has a full on melt down. When I am leaving he says "Bye MOM! See YA!" So it really is good that Daniel is the one to train Samuel.
