So I will start by saying that maybe this isn't the best thing to blog about, but this has been a long time in coming for us and considering I ran out for cupcakes after work to celebrate I figure it is a big enough event to blog about... Cooper peed in the potty this morning! Yes, we know that at almost 3 and a half, he has been taking his sweet time. What can I say? True to form, Cooper waited until he was ready to use the potty. (Remember this is the kid who waited until he was 8 months before he could pull himself up on anything, 10 months before he even considered crawling and 13 months before he walked, why we assumed he would want to potty anytime before 3 is beyond me). We have tried the lead by example: "Coop, papa has to go peepee on the potty." We have tried the peer pressure: "Coop, all your friends at school go peepee on the potty." We have even tried interspecies guilt trips: "Look Coop, Ally doesn't fit on the potty so she goes peepee outside." But at the end of the day, it's his job to do on his own time. So we all sang in our impromptu conga line "Peepee on the potty! Peepee on the potty! and he got a present for using the potty this morning and after dinner tonight we presented him a cupcake for using the potty! YEAH COOPER!!! Hopefully tomorrow is as eventful as this morning was.
