Sean and Aleece

So, last weekend Aleece and I were going to start potty training Leif. We had arranged it so Kalven would be at the grandparents house all weekend and we could just be alone with Leif. It was going to be an intensive potty training weekend.

That was the plan any way.

Here is what really happened…

I worked from home Friday to help out a bit. Aleece started off with trying to get Leif to sit on the toilet and to wear “big boy” underpants. Leif liked wearing the underpants, at least for a little while. He almost sat on the toilet long enough to think about maybe being close to going to the bathroom, but he didn’t. As parents Aleece and I have learned to pick our battles, you know like letting him play with his food a little as long as he is eating, letting him chew on the end of a washable marker, Leif picked this as his battle. He was not going to start potty training.

No way.

No how.

Not now.

So we have put off the training for a little while and will revisit it again later. Hopefully we will not have a little boy that picks that time as the battle he will not loose.
