Again?!?

Ev is starting to potty train. He has picked this up virtually on his own and far before Amelia did. I'm guessing having her as a great example has led to his early efforts. I'm so proud of him, but there is one little problem. He appears to be so addicted to the applause and cheers he gets for a successful potty trip that he wants to try every five minutes.  He'll run to the bathroom saying "Tee Tee. Tee Tee", sit on the potty, and strain as hard as he can to squeeze out a drop or two. At that point, he expects you to totally lose your mind like Publisher's Clearing House just showed up at your door.  We try oblige, but our celebration is getting weaker and weaker. By the 15th time in a day, our cheers are more like a golf clap.  This hasn't seemed to deter him yet. However, if he doesn't slow down his pace soon, I'm going to train Sophie to bark and dance for him upon hearing the toilet flush.
