PTBC Update, Quint Olympic Style

Kaydence, Rustin, Kassidy, Ryder and Kyndall

Both: This is WQ+2 Quint Olympics!

Riley: Hi, my name is Riley Wilkinson

Kaiya: And I'm Kaiya Wilkinson.

Riley: Today we bring you a special update on the PTBC (Potty Training Boot Camp) Quint Olympics!

Kaiya: That's right, Riley! The quints have been at it for three weeks now, it's time give a progress report!

Two-days worth of underwear laundry from the first week of PTBC

Riley: When we last checked in on the quints, almost two weeks ago, Rustin was leading the pack, with Kassidy in second, Ryder and Kaydence tied for third and Kyndall in last place.

Kaiya: I spoke with the quints' mother, earlier today. She said that while improvements are being made, no one is completely "potty trained".

Riley: We'll reveal more from that interview in a minute, but now lets check in on each of the quints!

Kassidy has Potty Power!

Kaiya: Kassidy is doing great and has taken the lead from Rustin! She is consistently putting all her poop and she-she in the potty with only a couple of accidents over the last week. Right now, I would say Kassidy is the one to beat!

Kaydence

Riley: Kaydence deserves the "most improved" award for the past couple of weeks. She has really stepped up her game. She has not had any she-she accidents over the past week, but she is still having a hard time with #2. I think Kassidy better watch her back with Kaydence around!

Rustin

Kaiya: Rustin was an early leader, but has since lost his hold on first place.

Riley: Kaiya, this competition was really his to lose....what happened?

Kaiya: Rustin did fantastic initially, and he still can produce something anytime he sits on the potty, but lately he has started to average 3 accidents per day. It seems he gets caught up in playing and doesn't want to take a potty break.

Kyndall--she LOOKS innocent, doesn't she??

Riley: Kyndall, well, what can we say about Kyndall...she has always liked to march to the beat of her own drummer. In the past two weeks, Kyndall has gone she-she on the potty a total of two times. Right now she is in last place. Her head just isn't in the game, but I'm not going to write her off just yet...I think once SHE decides that she wants to be potty trained, it will happen.

Kaiya: Kyndall hasn't put a lot of poop or she-she in the potty, but I have heard rumors that she has put a lot of other things in the potty...

Riley: That's right, Kaiya, she is always putting something in there---big wads of toilet paper, dental floss, toothbrushes, and if she can't find anything else, her hands!

Dental Floss in the toilet....only slightly less disgusting than finding your toothbrush in there :-)

Ryder

Kaiya: Ryder continues to make steady progress on the potty. He is pretty good with she-she, but has some problems with #2.

Riley: Wow, looks like some definite improvements are being made at the Wilkinson house.

Kaiya: Yes! When I spoke with the Quints' Mom, she said she was pleased with the progress, but hoped the whole thing would be over soon! She said one of the hardest parts of potty training is that it requires a lot of individual attention....that means that when she is focused on one child, the rest like to be off causing TROUBLE!!

Riley: Ooohhh, yeah! I have noticed that when mom is helping a couple of the quints in the bathroom, the others are out pulling all the pillows off the couch or dumping the contents of all the game cupboard on the floor. When Mom is in the kitchen getting lunch ready and some of the quints go to the potty by themselves, they usually end up causing some kind of mischief in the bathroom.

Kassidy and Kyndall found the stash of markers in the bedroom and used them to "decorate"

Fortunately they were dry erase markers and the girls colored on things that could be cleaned!

Kyndall and Kassidy snuck into the closet, found the supply of nicely organized greeting cards, and quickly un-organized them!

Ryder and Rustin found the lipstick!

They both look soooo remorseful for their misdeeds, don't they?? (not!)

Riley: The current standings in the Potty Training Quint Olympics are: Kassidy in first place, Kaydence second place, Ryder third place, Rustin, fourth place and Kyndall a distant 5th place.

Kaiya: We've seen how quickly things can change....it's still any ones game!

Riley: This is Riley for WQ+2.

Kaiya: And this is Kaiya for WQ+2, join us next time for the exciting CONCLUSION (or at least my mom hopes there will be a conclusion) to the Potty Training Boot Camp Quint Olympics!!!!

Both: BYE!!!
