Just FYI, I found a book in a store a while back I just couldn't pass up. Just thought it was really funny as my Hannah had the same confusion about the Potty Train.

Ford's 2.5 and I'm not sure he's "ready" but it'd be nice to potty train in the summer when he's wearing less clothes. :) I’m going to run out and buy this book today/tomorrow.

I am the mother of five adult children, and many years ago we used the book you recommended when we were potty training them. It worked wonderfully for us - I am glad to see it is still in print, and that you found success with this method. Blessings! It really brought back memories to read your post.

I'm talking about buying "good dirt" as a frugal tip for my WFMW post today... sounds silly, right? <a href="http://amy-tinyblessings.blogspot.com/2009/05/wfmw-buying-good-dirt.html" rel="nofollow"><strong>Stop by</strong> </a>if you'd like to check it out! :) OK, I’ll be checking the library for this book! :) My son talks a great game, but actually DOING anything on the potty is another story.

And I've put the book on hold at our library. We shall see. I'm a little tired of sticking my 2yo on the potty, leaving her there for 10 minutes, and then having her wee on the floor as soon as she gets off! Way to go!

I'd really put off potty training at all because my idea was that I'd have to spend a week closely monitoring him for any sign he needed to go to the bathroom—I'd have to take a week off writing and work and PS the baby. But Ryan took care of Rebecca and Hayden and I chilled in the kitchen pretty much all day. It was strange—this thing I was dreading so much ended up being <strong>one of the best days I've ever had as a mother</strong>. I think THAT was the biggest surprise.

I didn't have a full day alone with him, either, though, and in hindsight, he wasn't ready (even though he was 3). I used a lot of the same techniques later on, and by #4, potty training was a breeze. It was a nightmare for #2, though--she figured it out plenty easy, but it was a control thing. If she got mad at me, she'd purposely make a puddle on the floor. That was fun. That book didn’t *quite* work for my first.

She's on the docket next week. I mean, she <em>is</em> ten months old today, so we'd better get hopping. (Just kidding.) We’ll have to see how well this system works for Rebecca.
