William likes to color... everything.... paper, rugs, beds, walls... I realized that just telling him "no" or having him go to the corner when he did it was not working. So when he recently colored on the wall in the family room I gave him a sponge with soap on it to scrub it off. I think he understood why he was doing it, and if he does it again, he'll have to clean it up. 
And in other news... William started wearing underwear this week. He loves it and he has been going to the bathroom everyday since Monday. He even stays dry at naptime! We're still having a little trouble getting to the bathroom on time with "number 2", but he at least tries to get there. Having only underwear on and no pullups really helps because he doesn't like to be wet. YAY!! We're a diaper free home!!

I'm sure glad Robby doesn't write on the walls.
Congrats William on the big boy underwear!
Robby has been in underwear for 2 weeks, day and nigh. So nice! We used to only put a pullup on when we would go to church or the store but not anymore. I really don't think pullups help them learn the difference, it's too much like a diaper.
Keep up the good work William!
Hmmm having them clean it up...Sounds like a wonderful idea. Do you think that Josh is too young yet? Good Job to William on Being diaper free!!!
