Potty Training

We have decided to start the fun job of potty training the twins. I hate it!! I haven't even started focusing on David. He pretty much goes running to the toilet every time we take his diaper off, but does not tell us he needs to go nor does he go when asked. Dayna on the otherhand occassionally will tell us she needs to go, but does really well when asked. She is a lot like Dylan in the way of they want to know what every bathroom looks like in every store/resturant/house/etc. She will pee before we leave the house and by the time we get wherever she has to go again...sometimes twice. I guess, at least she is going on the toilet. My mom has some how got her convinced of two things. One is big girls go potty on the toilet and only babies go in their diapers...which I agree with. The other is now every time she goes poop on the toilet she gets this huge smile and says, "Now I go shopping with grandma!!" Sorry, mom, you started it and now you owe her lots of trips to the store!! Luckily, unlike Dylan, she still forgets things like that so you are probably off the hook. Speaking of shopping. Dave and I took the little ones to the store this afternoon so Dave could get a valve for the water trough and David was near tears and upset!! He did NOT want to go shopping like girls, he kept saying, "boys go golfing, girls go shopping." At least he stopped when he saw "boy stuff" in the store! Here is a pic that I caught of all the kids working on the potty training idea together! And for once Dylan has his shirt on while going to the bathroom!!
