Alayna ate all of her grilled cheese sandwich, apple slices and tomato soup at lunch today and obviously wasn't here for breakfast.
We have started the second round of toilet training and this is the
plan I am using. I will take all of the oldest 5 kiddos to try
to use the toilet at 8:00. 9:30. 11:00/or before nap (depending on their
level and interest), and after nap. In addition I will take any of
them that tell me they need to go (as long as they haven't already just
gone), and if I see them straining or looking like they are about to
poop or pee. I have purchased some cute little hand print charts with
room for 25 mini-stickers. Each time a child goes pee they can put one
sticker on the chart and each time they poop they get two to put on.
When they get their sheet filled they can take it home. If you want to
get them a treat or fun family night other reward for completing the
chart, that is totally up to you. Since I am investing a considerable
amount of time and energy into this, I am asking that you make sure to
dress your kiddo in elastic waists (or dresses) and no onesies, bib
overalls, or pants with buttons or snaps. We will do this intensive
training for two weeks and reevaluate to see who to continue with at
that point. So far we have two kiddos with "successes" today (Alayna
and Kenzie). Alayna was thrilled with the chart and
putting the stickers on.
Since Alayna came late, there really isn't much else to write about outside of the pottying plan. She was pretty cuddly with both Gary and I this morning and did play with the lego blocks for a while in the back room.
