Ella has helped to celebrate many birthdays this spring starting with her own... Ashlyn, Rachel, Max, Claire, Jared... so she loves to talk about birthdays and birthday cake. While we were at my parents she really wanted to eat some birthday cake, so we decided to make that her special treat if she went poop on the potty for the first time. And it worked! She would say out loud while sitting on the potty, "Out, poo poo, out! Ella wants birthday cake. Yeah! Look mama, Ella made poo poo!" So, we made a special cake with sprinkles to celebrate. Each day she poops she gets another piece of cake. But... oh no, we only have one piece left. Then we'll have to move on to another incentive. Any ideas on how to continue to motivate her?

Today it was all about the sprinkles. "Ella wants birthday cake... with sprinkles!" Her face just lights up whenever she says that word. It's so cute.
stickers worked well with BJ, just a a thought...
