So, today I thought I would come in and give a quick update.
I'm potty training. We had started the process before, but found out that the little one wasn't as ready as we thought. So we postponed.
And waited,
And waited,
And waited some more, with his third birthday around the corner, decided this was the perfect time to start up again. We have about two months before we travel again, and nothing to dramatic coming up (that we know of).
So this morning, after we woke up, had showers and breakfast, I put a pair of cotton "big boy" underwear on him, instead of a normal pull-up.
He came up to me about an hour later, "Momma I want to sit on the potty." So we go to the potty, and he had already wet himself. Cleaned him up, put on clean underwear.
That scenario repeated about 5 more times.
The sixth time he changed it up on me, guess he wanted to make sure I knew he was going to do this on his time. He added a poopy to the mix.
This time I did not put clean underwear on him, I took of the soiled pair, and left him naked. I kinda ignored him, wouldn't play with him for a while, and he disappeared for a while, I went hunting and found him sitting on the potty. I had to walk off before he knew I had seen him. A few mins later he comes to find me, and said "Momma come look." He finally did it. He pee'd in the potty for me!
I made a huge deal about it, gave him candy, clapped and tons of kisses.
So just maybe, he will go once more tonight before bed, and start to catch on tomorrow.
