Tuesday: A Little More Hopeful

So this morning, Ivan and I hung out at home.  I had a myriad of things to accomplish, and I had a whole new plan for potty training.  Last night, I made a whole sheaf of charts and got up this morning with my game face on and positive reinforcement in my back pocket.  Ivan and I had a discussion this morning, and he was pretty excited when I showed him the charts.  He got to use a green hi-liter and put x's in the pee blocks on his chart.  Every time he put an x in the pee box, he got 5 minutes of hide and go-seek play time with me.  It was like heaven.

We had no accidents in the morning, Ivan napped with his diaper and then no accidents until about 10 minutes 5:45 PM when he just informed me that "no more chart".  He peed freely on the floor three times, and it was a real blow to my morale.  BUT, compared to the last week, the improvements are so huge that I cannot complain.  Eight out of eleven times is not bad.  It is an improvement.

In other news, I did a yoga/ weights workout today, but felt rather lazy about the whole thing.  It was not my best effort. I ran at about three miles at 7:30 PM when things really cooled off.

Double swim tomorrow!!
