my BIG boy!

So I was looking at the calendar and realized that this might be a good weekend to try potty training.  I kept going back and forth for the past couple of months...I felt Tyce was ready and would pick it up okay.  But I also loved the freedom and ease of knowing he is in a diaper.  He would wake up in the morning or from a nap and play in his bed for a while without me needing to get him.  So I was wishy-washy for a while and finally decided to just do it.

So we started on Saturday morning with our 3 day potty training.  We did this with Eli and it worked really well.  We put him in big boy underwear and threw away his diapers.  Then we gave him a lot of juice- something he very rarely gets.  Next, he proceeded to have a lot of accidents.  There were also a lot of good tries in there too.  In fact, I could tell when he needed to go because we would have a lot of 'false alarms' before he would finally pee on the floor.  We finally had a success in the evening, where he started to pee by the toilet and finished in the toilet.  Hooray!
On Sunday, we started the morning with an accident.  But then he got the hang of it!  He probably went 6 times with only one more accident.  We still need to conquer the BM, but he overall has done awesome.  Way to go, Tyce!!  I'm so proud of my big boy.
