We have finally been home in Cincinnati for about a week. And that meant we could start potty training again. I had Leah going pretty good at the start of the summer, except she had some pooping issues. Her pediatrician suggested that we stop what we were doing, clean her out and start again in a few weeks. So those few weeks passed and we started our training the first day we were home. We have had a ton of success! Leah has no problems using the potty ~ whether it be a little potty, and toddler ring or just the 'big girl' potty itself. She has been telling us when she needs to go, and we keep a potty in the car at all times. But, those pooping issues are back and I am convinced that she is just being stubborn! (I will only post her first 'pee pee in the potty' pic and not the poo poo ~ but I do have it!)
I had read about a place called Stricker's Grove over in Ross. It is a small amusement park and it is only open to the public a few times a year. Fortunately it was open all last week which meant I had a little ammunition. And sure enough, it worked. As soon as I told Leah that if she pooped in the potty we would go, she ran to the bathroom and went!
Stricker's Grove is a great place to take children. It has some smaller rides for the likes of Max, medium rides for Leah and a few bigger rides for older children, including two roller coasters. We hope we can get back one more time this summer when it is open to the public again in August.
