two thumbs up!

you got that right!

two thumbs way up high for this little man

who is now the king of his potty!!!

it took us all of four full days to potty train him.  

(remember this post and that?)

on the fourth day... we were jumping for joy already.

we were done!!! (for the meantime, that is.)

who knew that potty training would be like a walk in the park?

i sure didn't but i'm thankful nontheless!

potty training day #2

prior to starting potty training
i have read numerous books and talked to a number of moms

who can shed some light and knowledge

on how to make it an easy transition both for child and parents

i will be honest when i say that i was very nervous to start

i know how messy it will get and that 'accidents' are bound to happen.

as i've said previously, we are starting the little man slowly.

no diapers in the daytime unless he is down for a nap, bedtime or when we are out

i will then slowly transition him to no diapers at naptime, etc.

it's day #2.  

and the little man has successfully been peeing in the potty!

"need to pee, mommy!" is his usual opening line.

no bribery and no tricks.

i think he is just plain ready to use it!

*i hope he forgives me for posting this pic up when he's old enough to understand*

potty training day #1

we've decided to start the little man with his potty training.

with the hubby going back to work in 2.5 weeks

TODAY is the best day to begin.

we let him run around the house with no diapers on.

so far, two bathroom runs and no accidents.

not bad for his first day, right?!?

but we are taking this the slow route.
no diapers when he's awake
and we will cheat at nighttime
until he is fully trained in the mornings.

wish us luck!

i know we're going to need it.

and if you have any potty training tips,

i'd be grateful to you for sharing!
