It's That Time...Potty Time!

Last week I decided it was time to start the potty training business with Drew.  Our trip was over with none scheduled til Thanksgiving, so my excuses for postponing were gone :)  He's expressed some interest and is always ready to be a big boy like Mac.  That, coupled with the fact that Baby Taylor 3 will arrive at the end of January, meant it was time to get serious. 

I picked a day to start that Mac would be at school and I'd be home with Drew all day.  And our weekly calendar was pretty empty.  We go straight from diapers to underwear, so when Drew woke up, right into underwear he went.  And the timer was set.  He had a couple accidents on days 1 and 2 but by day 2 was totally frustrated with having to go and the whole this is how you tee tee deal was totally not clicking.  He and I were both frustrated and I wanted so badly to give up. 

But we persevered and Day 3 was a new day!!  It suddenly clicked for Drew, and we haven't had a tee tee accident since (the other is a different story at this point...)  He is so proud of himself and LOVES getting "M-a-M's" after each potty break.  Mac has been a terrific big brother offering encouragement and help throughout the whole process. 

This right here is a proud little boy of his underwear!

I love that chubby little hiney and legs :)
