The Twins: Field Trips and Potty Training

Jordan and Brandon got to go on their first field trip together with Jordan's preschool class. They went to the park by the lake. There were swings, slides, and monkey bars. Together they enjoyed seeing the ducks and the beautiful lake scenery at the park. After only a couple of hours, both boys were worn out and ready to return home for a nap.
Another first this week...potty training began. Earlier this week, Jeannie was talking to Jordan as she was changing his diaper. She asked him if he would like to try sitting on the potty instead of using the diaper. He seemed to dislike the feel of the soiled diaper. He indicated by clucking his tongue for "Yes" that he would like to try using the potty. It was a sucess the very first time. We waited several days to make sure that it wasn't just a fluke. Since that time, Jordan has successfully urinated and had bowel movements in the potty numerous times. He urinates almost every time that he sits on the potty and he doesn't waste much time either. He gets right down to business. The bowel movements are more difficult for him to master with the same level of skill. What can I say? Brandon, Jordan's twin brother, still hasn't mastered that one either.
