fun with my little man...

Yesterday, we went to the mall to exchange some clothes for S.  N. saw a little train that you could ride and of course wanted to ride it.  I'm not one for paying for these little things, so I decided to make it a reward for going poo-poo on the potty.  He's been doing awesome at pee-pee, but has still been refusing to try the other.  I told him my proposition, and he immediately wanted to try.  He tried his very best at the mall restroom with no success, but I told him that when he's able to go at home, we'll then go to the mall to ride the train.  So this morning, he needed to go. He was a little scared, but the idea of riding the train must have been worth it to him, so he tried and did it.  He was so proud of himself and couldn't stop talking about going to the mall to ride the train.

Our fun at the mall...
We first went to ride the train.  He was so shy once we got up there, and I don't think he smiled at all the whole time he was on it, but he wanted to ride it again, so I guess he liked it.  After that, we enjoyed lunch at chick-fil-a, followed by play-time at the mall play area.  I had fun with my little guy and he kept telling me on the way home "that was fun, mom."  I love him so much and can't believe how much he is growing up.
