All Aboard the Potty Train...

Last summer Malachi became very interested in the potty and we let him start wearing Pull-ups.  He would sit on it but never did much and then became very disinterested in it.  We've talked A LOT about it since then.  And I'm happy to report that our little man is going pee-pee in the potty quite often now!!!  Praise the Lord :)  Looks like the small box of thrift store treasures serves as motivation.  I bought several ziploc bags full of small cars and other plastic toys for little $ and added some stickers and Twizzlers (his favorite) to the box.  Now whenever he goes in the potty he can choose a prize.  He's racking up and Mommy needs to make another thrift store run!  But it's all worth it - I can tell he's so proud of himself.  And he's actually wearing big boy underwear while he's here during the weekend days -- even to Wal-Mart today.  Good job, Malachi :)
