Well we have reached somewhat of a milestone in our house.
I haven't really been actively pushing potty training with Christian. He hadn't shown a big interest and since the baby will be here soon, I wasn't pushing the issue. But much like when he started to walk, the postive peer pressure at daycare is a good thing.
Ms. Diana, his teacher at daycare, told me today that twice this week he has gone pee-pee in the potty. WOW! I said! That is a big deal. They had told me when he started in the class that they always offer the potty to everyone, but they don't push either.
For the last month or so at our house Christian will tell us he has gone poo-poo. In the last 2 weeks we have started offering for him to sit on the potty after he tells us this. We know nothing more will happen, but it a segway for us to talk about the potty and get him used to sitting on it.
Today was the day that it happened at home. He pee-peed in the potty at home!!
We sang out little 'pee-pee in the potty song' like they did in Look Who's talking too. Christian enjoyed the song.
Now comes the really funny part of my little story. Chris is back in the kitchen and says "Well I guess he will be the one to do this, potty train himself." He had the impression we were done. He peed in the potty once, he is trained. We both laughed about that notion for a few minutes.
So now we are in the beginning phase of potty training. Baby steps. Woo who!!!
