The Adventure has Begun...

Today, one month before Drew turns 3, a new adventure has begun. The day I have been dreading since Drew was born, has finally arrived... Potty Training Day! We had absolutely nothing planned for today so we thought it might be a great time to start potty training. Believe me I wanted to back out, I wanted to find someone I could pay to take on this task, but at 7:00am we dove in. And to be honest... it hasn't been too bad.

His first success came after a whole glass of orange juice at about 8:00am, followed immediately by an accident. By 11:00am he had gone in the potty 5-6 times, and in his Pullup 3-4 times. He really loves the Skittles we bought him as a bribe, and he is trying so hard to keep his Tow Mator Pullups dry. He has even started telling us when he needs to go, before it is too late. Sometime it is a false alarm, but that is alright. He stayed dry all through lunch and nap time (from about 11:30-3:30) and went like a pro when he woke up! We are so proud of our little man! We are even letting him pick dinner tonight!

I will keep you posted on the progress. Yea, for our little man.
