Hooray for Grandma! Daddy is out playing golf with Grandpa so we don't have a way to get to the store to get some juice, which is the only thing I can think of to get him to go potty more often. After my mess up this morning of letting him play too long in his crib alone, I just haven't been feeling good about how the rest of the day was going to go. And Henry hasn't been too interested in drinking milk or water, so I called Grandma and asked her to bring over a cup of it if she goes out today. Well, of course, Grandma being Grandma, she took the call seriously and came right over with 1/2 a jug of Juicy Juice (100% juice. :) Way to go, Grandma!!!) grape juice. We watered it down with about 1/3 water in his Mickey Mouse sippy cup and he has been chugging it.
During the last potty time, we sat him down and he had some great success! But even more exciting was about 10 minutes later when he asked me for the iPad. I told him he could only have it if he went pee pee in the potty so he sat down and almost immediately jumped up and pointed at it. I went over to check and, sure enough, there was more pee pee in the potty! I couldn't believe it! So we celebrated and I gave him the iPad.
Unfortunately, then he went and sat in his red chair and peed there. Then sat on the floor and peed there. Then I put him back on his potty and he peed there, too. So the juice is working but maybe a bit too good. I got a little ahead of myself when I was thinking that he really was getting it because he didn't tell me anything about going pee pee in the chair or on the floor until afterward. But he did recognize that he'd gone and told me so I could clean it up. So that's something. The journey continues.
