So for awhile, potty training was going fabulously, with the Truester…
We were down to one accident a day (on Weekdays), and being clean and dry the rest of the day. And I was quite happy about that. (On the Weekends, with the change of schedule, was a little more difficult to stay clean)
That was until Halloween came, and with it a MOTHER-LOAD of Candy. Since then Truman has stopped wanting to wear underwear, and just wanted to eat that candy all day long. He asks about it numerous times a day.
So, today, he came up with a good scheme.
Let me preface this scheme with these facts:
–One way he earns a treat, is by staying clean and dry.
–Pull-ups have little figures on the front that disappear as the diapers get soiled.
After quiet time today, Tru came upstairs, and said, “look mom I put on 2 pull ups, and I am clean and dry!”
Sure enough he “looked” like he was clean and dry, but the odor coming from the bottom pull up told the truth.
Tricky, Tricky Truman!

Genius Truman. Did you still get a treat for all the thought & effort?
You’d better watch out for this one when he gets older. I can see it now. “See mom? I didn’t dent the car and cover it with putty…it’s supposed to look like that!”
How funny!! I can just see his little mind at work trying to figure out how to get a treat! What a smartie.
Jensa, I haven’t laughted so hard in a while. Putty on Car? Do you speak from experience?
ha! ha!
