Potty Training

 We started officially potty training my oldest son.  He only like to wear the underwear with Lightning McQueen from cars or any sports activity on them. Other than that he doesn't like plain underwear. Our approach to make this happen is for the next week or so when we can he has to sit on the potty for a minute or two every 15 to 20 minutes. As a reward for going in the potty we have a bag of candy he can choose from, but sometimes he wants an apple instead.
It has been a long couple of days. We have had a couple successes and a couple accidents.  Although the accidents happened when we were not at home. One happened at the playground and i'm glad it rained today to clean up the mess he left in the crawl tube. The other happened after church when we were just talking to everyone before we left.  We were half lucky that we had clothes to change him into but we only had a pair or jeans, so he ran around the church for a few minutes in just jeans.  He wasn't happy about that b/c he really likes to have a shirt and pants on all the time. But all-in-all i think he is starting to get the jist of potty training.
