Pressuring Mom and Dad into Potty Training

I (Morgan) decided a few weeks ago that I am going to use the potty. You'd think my parents would be thrilled. However, Mom and Dad have had very low expectations for me in the potty department... They assume that since big sister and big brother weren't exactly potty training standouts that I'll be much older also before I lose the diapers. However, I've been pressuring them througout the process. Seth was afraid I'd drown :-) when I starting climbing on the big potty so Dad pulled out the little potty for me. After seeing me pull off my diapers time after time to go, Mom bought me pullups. I saw Dora underwear at the store tonight and convinced Mom and Dad to get them for me. They are tired of seeing me try to wear big brother's underwear. I am costing them a lot less than my siblings with the potty training process. I've heard rumor that Mom and Dad have bought a bike, stickers, toy cars, etc. as bribes in the past. I am happy to get a couple M&M's.

I use the potty about 2-5 times a day. I still have a ways to go, but it's going well so far.
