Superman at 3 years old


I'm really trying to find out what it's going to take to get this little Superman to keep his underwear dry.
Yesterday he wet his underwear so many times I lost count
I was just about in tears.

So I decided to go and get some pull ups and keep setting the timer to take him every 30 min. like I have been doing but just use the pull ups instead of having to wash 15 pairs of underwear. I know I'm a wimp.

When we went to the store to get the pull ups Jaden seen a Superman hat and asked for me to make a cape.
So of course being the crafty mom that I am, I said OK and made this one during nap time.
I told him he can keep his cape as long as his underwear stays dry. We'll see if this works.
I'll have to keep this picture for when he get's married!
bad mama! :)

I've kept my underwear relatively dry for several years now (as long as I don't sneeze, cough, or laugh really hard). I'll be expecting my cape in the mail. Size extra large and my favorite color is green.

I'm not sure if I already shared my potty training tips with you but the only other place I frequent on the Internet had a long thread about it yesterday. If you scroll down I'm the eighth one to post with my potty wisdom.

Well, I just basically stated my authoratative position as a pioneer in the field of potty training techniques. That's the experience gained when having six kids.

My oldest daughter potty trained before 2 because we bought her Winnie The Pooh panties and told her that she couldn't "poo" on Pooh, it made a big impression, and she didn't. Each subsequent child has had their own character panties to learn with. Of course my avatar is the beloved KanDoo frog that is the mascot of fresh wipes for children learning to use the toilet. We love Kan Doo!!!
