Adam has been going pee-pee in the potty since right after his 3rd birthday. However, the #2 has been quite a problem! He would go half the time in his underwear and half the time in the potty. He was never consistent. Then we had the months of him holding it and we thought he'd never figure it out. I had no idea it would be such a process just to get a kid to go to the potty! We went back to our old friend the potty chart and found out that what Adam really, really, really wanted was a big boy bike, not a tricycle. So he had to go 20 times to get his bike. He finally finished the chart off late last week and we went last night to get his big boy bike.
Unfortunately, it looks like it's going to take him longer to learn to ride a bike than it took him to learn to do his business in the potty. He's actually just sitting here, he's not really pedaling.

Great idea to use the bike as a reward/bribe!
Hahaha that is so cute and funny Gwen! I am so happy for you that Adam is potty trained now! I love the idea of a potty chart--I will do that for Scarlett when the time comes! That is so cute that he wanted big boy bike--he looks adorable on it!
Yeah, Adam! I'm so jealous, Carson is showing no interest in potty training at all!
Shayleigh had the same problem. He'll figure out the bike soon enough!
