My latest and greatest accomplishment is using the potty!  It took me a while, and a lot of kicking and screaming, but eventually I figured out that going potty isn't too bad!  The first day I went potty, my mom had some cool things for me... as you can see here: T-Rex P.J.'s and Dinosaur Boots!  













I also get to wear big-boy underwear, but I don't have it quite figured out yet.  
















But the coolest thing about going to the potty is that I THINK I get "snack treats" (a.k.a. fruit snacks) every time I go now!  I also think that I get lots of toys as rewards, cuz my mom used them to bribe me to go in my "camping potty" and to go on a big potty without my potty seat.  See, I got Fillmore and "Famone" from the Cars movie!

Not on the walls!

Cannon loves to play with his cars, and Lightning McQueen cars have been a convenient motivation with potty training. He takes good care of them, and if one is missing we have to search the house until we find it.

We've been struggling to help him understand that he shouldn't drive them along the walls and furniture, however. Just a moment ago, he was driving a car on the wall again--but before Molly could correct him, he said to himself, "Not on the walls, sweetie!"
