Josh is a Big Boy!

We started potty training Josh during the beginning of January. I was trying to think of something good as an incentive to get him to want to do this. One day, as we were driving along we saw the light rail, as we often did, and Josh told me he wanted to ride the choo-choo train. So, I told him if he could go 5 days in a row without having an accident, we would ride the train.
It took a lot of days (and a lot of accidents), but he finally achieved his goal at the end of February, and on March 6th we took a family ride on the "Choo Choo Train" to downtown Phoenix. Before boarding the train we grabbed some sandwiches at Subway to have a picnic with, then we rode downtown and got off near the Science Center and had a picnic on the lawn near there. Josh was pretty excited, and I think he had fun.

Josh still has his accidents every once in a while, but he generally does pretty well. Hooray for being potty trained!!! Now if only I could get Mary to use the toilet!
