Could it be???? really????

Yes Jack...it is SHOCKING

This boy in his little tighty (not so) whities...
is proud to report his potty training success!!!

just a little grooming after the hand washing...
{oh and by the way that picture up there is his version of Home Alone, aftershave scene ;) }
I just COULDN'T resist these skull boxers...they were a pretty penny too...but at this point
i'da bought him skivvys lined in gold just to have him wearin' em!



Those of us around here wondered if it would ever happened.
He did turn 3 back in January ya know.
The kids began telling him that his kindergarten teacher won't be changing any diapers so if he wants to go to school one day...well you know. It was sorta becoming a family joke that our independent little boy who could do anything...couldn't (wouldn't) do this one thing.
Well...i decided last week when the girls started track break...that I was gonna "break" him!
and bwahaahaa I DID!
FINALLY!
He wasn't to keen on the idea at first.
But somehow, the promise of a treat worked this time. I've tried that move before, it's not impressed him. Oh but now.....now the eyes got wide and desirous...............oh yessssss
Now we are in week two and he is doing great! Sometimes we wear underwear, sometimes a pull up. Sometimes I ask him, sometimes he tells me. We are far from perfect but it's working and he can even do it all by himself.
Numba one down...
Numba two still to go....
this would be the conversation that proceeds that deed...
"I not a big boy, I a tiny boy. i need a diaper mommy"
Jack do you need to go poops?
"No, i jus a baby, i need diaper"
ok
5 minutes later...
If ya know what I mean.....teeheehee

Fun times for sure! I was just telling a friend about what would get Soren to poop on the potty. Jason would do stand up comedy for him while he sat. I would hear Soren laughing hysterically and yelling "bonk your noggin Dad!"--it worked and Jason was exhausted by the end. . . and Soren would laugh it all out.

That's so great! Aviendha is potty training and it's been so much easier with her than with Jackson. He didn't train until he was 3 and Aviendha isn't even 2! It's so liberating not to have diapers around anymore!

VICTORY AT LAST!! Think of all the great scrapbooking supplies you can now purchase with the diaper money!
