Metro Ride for #2

Nathan is fully potty trained during the day (i.e., he wears underwear and almost never has an accident). But... he has been very resistant to go #2 in the potty. Instead, he can hold it all day and then once we put his diaper on at bedtime, he goes. So, we've been trying to encourage him to try #2 on the potty and have made a reward chart to encourage and track his progress. If he went 3 times on the potty, he earned himself a ride on the metro train. Well, over Memorial Day weekend, Nathan earned his ride on the metro train. So Monday evening, we packed up the boys and drove to the Vienna station. We took the Metro to Ballston, ate dinner at Chevy's (love the Corn Tamalito) and then rode home. Nathan had a blast.



But the best treat was running into Uncle Matt and Victoria on the train, as they were headed to Union Station to catch Amtrak to "York City" as Nathan calls it (aka NYC). What a coincidence!
