Bryce's Adventures in Potty Training!

So we have been trying it seems forever to get Bryce to use the potty. That effort hasn't been going to well. For the longest time he was soooo scared of the potty. Even his little potty we bought, just his size. It was like trying to get him to sit down on a seat full of glass. He would literally SCREAM and cry. I couldn't understand it. So for a while we just gave up.
Everyone kept saying he'll do it when he's ready, and I kept thinking well what about when I'm ready, doesn't that count? Apparently not! This week, on Tuesday I think, he decided that was the day! I'd been putting him on "big boy undies" for a couple of weeks and today was no different, big boy undies it was.
All of a sudden I hear feet running down the hall, the bathrooom door fly open, his stepping stool being moved, and then............ NOTHING! I thought, O man what is going on? So I jump up, take off for the bathroom, and there he is standing on his stepping stool in front of the potty spraying everything I think EXCEPT in the potty! LOL! But I was so excited that he had tried I rewarded him with a KitKat and a big hug. Next time I had to direct him a little to shoot for the potty which he did without problems!
Now he thinks everytime he heads for the bathrrom there's gonna be a KitKat reward after he leaves. I think I'd probably give him a whole bag of 'em if he'd poo there too LOL!
Anyway, speak of the devil he's come in here and now he's showing me a video of a combine cutting corn on the Ipod that he thinks is "pretty cooool". He is such a BOY, and this is MY BEAUTIFUL LIFE!
~Luv~
