Evan has shown signs of using the potty for months now. We tried potty training back in November with the 3 day, stay at home method and it didn't work. So back to diapers we went. Yesterday I decided that now is officially the time. He knows when he goes, tells me to change his diaper, and even BRINGS me a clean diaper to put him in!
It's been 36 hours and so far so good. Sort of. It's not going to be 3 days that he'll master the potty in, but it's a start. We're going cold-turkey too. No Pull-Ups. Underwear only! Today he went almost 10 hours without going potty. 10 hours! After several beverages and a nap! This doesn't surprise me though. Evan is a very stubborn little man and knowing him, he thought "Ha! I'll show you and I just won't go on the potty at all!" Well, nature caught-up to him and he made it all the way TO the potty before going. Yah Evan! He still asks for his diaper and whines/cries to me to put it on him, but I know it's just because he has to go #2. Yep, still waiting for that one to happen!
Anway, 1.5 days down. Several to go I'm sure. But we're in it for the long-haul! Laundry, carpet cleaner, Skittles, bed pads & all!
awww! Big boy!!! Give him kisses from NiaGuh. :)
