Sign for Potty

So, we've been taking him to the potty every time we have heard the call since he was 8 months old. Ever since the beginning, every time he went poop, we would sign "potty" and praise him for going poopy in the potty. Every time he went pee, we would say, "Pssssssss. PEE, PEE". At least once or twice during his potty session, I would help sculpt his hand into the potty sign and show him how to make it. (Translation: I would move his fingers to the right positions for the sign, and show him how to make the movement required for the sign.)

A few months ago, we modified the sign for "potty" to make it easier for him to sign. But once again, we have been VERY consistent. We always take him when we know he's going. Sometimes not on time, but we give a sincere effort.
