Success!

DSCF4522

We have been potty training Adam for the past 2 weeks and it’s going great this time!  When I tried a couple months ago he had accident after accident.  This time, I started him off with being naked from the waist down and that did the trick.  He was accident free the first day!  We slowly worked up to wearing undies during the day (except for nap) and for the most part, he stays dry.  There have been a few little accidents but nothing too bad….other than the one poopy accident a couple of days ago.  Not fun for me. 

This picture is him saying “Yay!” for pooping in the potty for the first time yesterday.  I thought potty training would be so much better than changing diaper, but really, you still have to wipe their bums and clean up accidents.  I’ll just keep reminding myself about the cost savings of only having one kid in diapers.

His 3rd birthday is only 9 days away…my baby boy is growing up!

Good job Adam!!! We were just talking about how it is time to potty train Kinley! I think we will wait until after the holidays though!! Not fun, but in time so worth it. I always say I get a raise after we potty train :)

Wait, so he was just walking around with a bare bum? I have never heard of that trick.

I am not really looking forward to potty training....

Your kids are sooooo cute. I am starting into the "thinking about potty training" stage. Noah is showing signs of wanting to start, but I think I will wait awhile longer. I hear you on the having one kid in diapers though! I swear half of our grocery spending is on diapers.
