Potty trained!

Yes, we have worked on a week of potty training with Andrew and have been successful. Oh, we still have an occasional accident and nigttime training will come soon enough, but he's certainly proven himself to be a big boy! Sometimes he'll tell me, but for the most part, I just have to watch the clock and look for indicators that it's time to run to the potty. We started out last Saturday giving him candy as a reward every time he would use the toilet. By Wednesday night, when he went at church and I had no candy to give him at the time, he was okay with no reward. He enjoys getting to flush the toilet, so that seems to be reward enough, that along with lots of praise! So, we can save his teeth.

Justice just got his hair cut and I promise he looks just like Matthew! I've been calling him "Matthew Bentley" all morning!
