And the winner is......Patrick??

We were working on potty training with the boys when it was time for their 3 year checkup. They were doing really well with pee but poop was a different story. Our pediatrician suggested that to help the boys we should have a contest with all 3 kids. That way the boys will see Samantha doing well and that will encourage them to put forth more of an effort. We decided to make some sticker charts and the first one to get 15 stickers earns a lunch at the place of their choice with Mom and Dad. We were all surprised when Patrick took the lead. (Yes, that's Colin's chart with only one sticker and I'm not even sure if he really earned that one. He doesn't seem to care.) Today Dale and I took Patrick for is Poo Lunch. Here he is enjoying his "hamburger with cheese" at McDonald's. Samantha will be earning her lunch very soon and we can only hope that one day soon Colin will at least attempt to put some poo in the potty.
