VICTORY!!

Here it comes... a blog posting about pee-pee! It's amazing how once the process of potty training begins, the words 'pee-pee' and 'poo-poo' become high frequency words in your vocabulary.

This morning, Charlie woke up with a dry diaper... AGAIN. He actually does this often, and on many other previous occasions when this has happened, I've sat him on the potty with ZERO results. The kid has some amazing bladder control! But today, it was feeling very promising. First off, he was willing to sit on his "duck potty" without a fuss. Then, he kept talking about how he was going to do it. He talked about it A LOT. At one point, I told Paul, "I don't care if we're an hour late for church, I'm not moving this kid until he pees." Then, miraculously, it FINALLY happened!

CHARLIE PEED IN THE POTTY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yes, people, there is hope! We did end up being late to church, but only by 10 minutes... so I'm feeling very good about the day!

Yay! We have just moved into the no more diapers (EVER, after 14 years!) stage and it is fabulous! Even though he has been fully trained a good 2 weeks now, every time he finishes doing his thing, he comes running in calling "come see my poop!" and we all file into the bathroom to look at his accomplishment and cheer. I wonder how much longer this will last?

Congratulations on the light at the end of the tunnel!

YAY! It feels so good when you hit this milestone. I can't wait to do Owen, but not that anxious to try it for another year lol. Way to go Charlie!

Horray for Pee! Seriously, the money we spend on diapers is rediculous! Way to go Charlie (and mom)

So did you take pictures?

We still have a picture of Mikayla's first poop in the potty. That was a very proud day.

I am so glad I don't have to potty train! What a chore it is. So proud of Charlie though and happy for you.
