Spencer Potty Trains Himself

Spencer has made it known that he is the one in charge of Potty Training. I dont knwo if this is a trait of a normal 3rd child or what, but every time I try to put him in underwear he reverts back and loses interest. I have found it to be much more affective if I simply place him in a pull up and leave him be. I will then find him at random places in the house chillaxin in the his birthday suit, like its no body's business. I will then ask him why his pants are down. In response he runs to the potty like a penguin squealing with laughter. I can not be anywhere near him as he goes potty. I have to be at a distance while he lifts the seat, and flushes the toilet all by himself. We are no where near being potty trained and I can tell you from a Mother of 3 boys he is gonna test me the most in everything he does. He is very independent, smart, and stubborn. And this is just the beginning of letting him exercises those skills. I just sure hope he decides to potty train completely by school age. Im sure he will. Hes a sweet little boy with great determination in all things. Hes my little peanut.




This is Spencer showing his friends how he goes potty. We had some friends over for dinner and couldnt find the babies anywhere. They were found in the bathroom observing Spencer's lechure and intructions on Potty 101. LOL

potty training is one of my least favorite things to do as a mommy!
