Jayden just loves life. He is easily excited and just about anything can bring a big smile to his face. His imagination is amazing. He loves to sing, dance and rock out on his guitar. Last week sometime we were all laying quietly in our bed and he sincerely asked me, "mom, wanna talk?" So of course I said "sure jayden, what do you want to talk about." He proceeded to tell me all about a drawing I made for him the previous day. Random and sweet!
In December we tried the BabyWise potty training method and although it set the stage for some good stuff he totally DID NOT GET IT! He consumed lots of treats and peed on the floor several times. It was fun but we definitely decided not to push it! So last week he randomly told me he needed to pee pee in the potty. Sure enough he did it! And, he's been doing it since. After just 1 week he is really catching on. He stayed dry ALL day today. Even during his nap! We cannot take any credit at all for his progress. He literally is potty training himself. Praise God for that one! Can i get a high five! Oh, and any advice on how to eliminate the treats would be appreciated. He gets 2 skittles for pee pee and 3 for poo poo. Just a side note about his continued quirkiness...he always wants one "brown" (purple) skittle and one orange. And, he has to make sure they both have a "S" on them before he will eat them:)
P.S. Did you notice how dark his hair is underneath all the blonde stuff? The cool guy part down the middle was the beginning stage of combing through his hair...of course he LOVES to do this...probably one of his least favorite things to do.
Umm...are you 2 or what? I swear he looks like a four year old and acts older sometimes. he is quite happy with his dinosaur rain boots, can ya tell?

I love the second potty picture! SO funny!
i love that kid. i love his skittle quirks. and i miss you!
he'll work his way out of the potty treats. Let him be the one to remind you of them... if you don't bring it up, chances are, he will eventually forget. My kids are obsessive compulsive with their treats too!
