The Poop Wars

Dear Greyson,

The last week and a half you and daddy went out to Rockford to visit Grandma and Red Papa. Mommy didn't get to go because she had to work. It was a long, sad, lonely week. Luckily we were able to Skype at least twice a day. That definitely helped but it wasn't the same.

Daddy decided that since you were going to be together nonstop for a week and a half he would buckle down and do some serious potty training. Day one went really well. Day two, not so well. Daddy was very frustrated but mommynsaid to keep it up. He powered through and you returned to BG 75% potty trained! Daddy followed the 3day potty training method. We don't tell you to go or ask you to go, we remind you to tell us when you need to go. Over and over and over. Amazingly, it works!

Right now though, we are in the middle of the poop wars. You are definitely winning. You refuse to poop in the potty. Apparently that one time in November was a fluke. We will continue to forge through this relentless battle.

This afternoon we began shopping for a new bed for you. You told us you needed to go potty so we ran to the bathroom. While in the bathroom you told us you pooped, you didn't but for some reason you were convinced you did. I was digging in the bag and you asked what I was doing. I told you I needed something in the diaper bag. You looked at me and said, "there no diapers! That's a big boy bag!"

I love you Buddy! Forever and longer!
Love Mommy
