Ryan Update

Ryan had his first dental checkup this week…and to my surprise, he was extremely well behaved. He allowed them to perform a complete cleaning and apply a fluoride gel on his teeth. The dentist found no cavities or other problems!



Two weeks ago, we finally got serious about potty training. We spent the entire weekend at home, taking him to the toilet every 1.5 hrs and bribing him with stickers and a toy.

He has gone the last five days without once wetting his diaper in the daytime and has even gone a few nights without a wet diaper.
