First Potty Training Outing

So, a short back story to get everyone up to date, Tanner and Logan are PETRIFIED of public restrooms.  Something about the echoing sounds of toilets flushing and hand dryers going off send them into a tizzy!
Well, typically my mom (Mimi), my niece and great-nephew, the twins and I go on weekly outings, and us potty training victims were itching to GET OUT!  Today was the day...we were to meet at a restaurant that has a great play area, and Momma was equipped!  I had two changes of clothes a piece, plastic bags for possible wet clothes, wipes....and a potty seat.  Yes, I brought my own potty seat.  I was gonna make this a success if it killed me!!

They actually sat on the potty before we went into the restaurant!  Yay, SUCCESS! But...the distraction of a fun playground reared it's ugly head and off to the restroom we went for 3 clothing changes. Failure?  Not at all because Mimi came to the rescue and helped my darlings over come their fear of echoing potties!

                                                         Mimi says it's not scary!

I've chalked the first potty training outing up as a success overall...but ready to be home bound close to "our" potties and crowd free clothes changing.  Share your stories and suggestions about your "successful" outings with potty training kiddos!

Had to share a picture of my adorable great-nephew!
