after a 10 mins battle over putting socks on ds, I finally made him walk down the path sockless on the frost...

[deaconblue]

it worked a treat. He took one step on the cold ground and asked for his socks and shoes. I felt like supernanny! Battle is because I'm making him try to dress himself (he's 2.9) and he would rather run around while I chase him and shove on each item as I am able to catch him.

I have the battle still and my ds is nearly 5!! Are you looking for a job super nanny, i have a spare room

Oh well done!

How's the potty training going?

potty training going really well now thanks. He can now "wee" when he wants to so I only have to sit him on the potty every couple of hours and offer him a star on his chart if he produces one. Next step we need to work on him telling me when he need to go.
