Day Three and Chippy Returned

First things first, Day Three of potty training went pretty damn well!  He had no accidents, not even a drip!  I think he peed 4 or 5 times in the potty and did number 2 once.  We even went out to a parade and he was fine.  We are sooo proud of him.  No way is this process done, but I think he is on the right track to be trained sooner then later.  One weird part of the day was he has better bladder control then anyone I know!!  He went from about 1-6:30 without needing to go!  He made it through 2 car rides, visiting friends, going to a parade and a bath )with running water!) with out going!  But when he finally needed to go, we went.  Weird boy, but at least he didn't have an accident.  This whole weekend he didn't really have any actually, nothing on the carpet or a couch.  pretty decent.  

When Cameron woke up this morning, he ran downstairs and asked Mark, "where is the the guy in the box?" and started to look around all over the house and finally found him hanging out on the wreath above our mantel.  He kind of had a breakdown, though, cause he soooo wanted to touch him.  I felt bad for him, but the Elf looses his magic if a child touches him.  He needs to follow the rules, right?! We mentioned him alot today and hopefully he'll continue to want to keep Chippy happy. Someday we'll teach him how to keep Christ happy, but he won't understand that yet!

  1. Why didn't we try this earlier? What a good little boy. I hope he continues the good work!! It must be good parenting, or maybe we're just plain luck.

  2. I can't believe how many people are doing the whole "Elf on a Shelf" strategy this year! I wish I could use it on Aubrey to help her sleep better this week. Prop him up on her bassinet, "If you don't sleep well tonight the elf will report back to Santa and you won't receive any gifts this year".. haha I can dream! :-)
