We've been trying to get Will interested in potty training for a while now, but he keeps saying no. We know he's capable, we know he could if he wanted to. Therein lies the problem; he just hasn't wanted to, saying that he doesn't want to stop wearing diapers. Today, however, I discovered his currency - a little bribe we like to call potty pez. He wore underwear for about 3 hours today and was totally successful! We'll see if potty pez hold their allure tomorrow.

And the key thing that the potty training book said was, don't ask them to use the potty, tell them "we're going to the potty" with enthusiasm. Riding the choo choo train to potty town has worked well for Sophie! She pooped on the potty last night, and peed this morning! We're making progress!
