Autism and Potty Training....blech.

So Garrett's been in the potty training process for over a year.  He's finally gotten that you pee in the potty, but only if we take him.  He's also set on the idea that poop doesn't go in the potty, but that you sneak and hide in the backyard and poop in the diaper.  Eyeroll.  Hope that one can change soon.  We're working really hard on this so that he can be potty trained for first grade.  Ideally, he would be potty trained by the time Kevin gets back, but no fingers crossed on that one.  :)  Here are our fun aids for potty training.

I made a sign for the door with some cool "people" who use the potty.  I was quite excited to find that funny pic of Elmo.  

 Here is our appetizing reinforcement poster that we put up right in front of the potty.  I colored the water yellow for the pee pee...the person who peed really wasn't that dehydrated.  Found the images on google images, so don't think I was taking pics of my own waste.  So yeah, if he pees, he gets a popsicle, and if he poops he gets gluten free waffles.  Good thing he likes how they taste, because they're not so good.  Actually, we may have to go off the diet and give him Gogurts to get him to poop in the potty because he REALLY wants those and maybe he would actually try for that. 

 Here is the most essential part of our potty training kit, the timer.  I don't have the right brain to remember to take Garrett potty, so this lovely timer reminds me every 20 minutes.
Just wanted to share in the JOY of potty training.  I'm sure you are all glad I'm a weirdo and posted about it.  :)
