Potty Training

If there was ever one part of parenting that I did not want to do, potty training was it. But now that it staring John and I right in the face, I don't have a choice but to tackle it. We starting potty training Levi a month and a half ago only to realize he wasn't quite ready, so we quit. We tackled it again this past Saturday and things went much more successfully! We stripped him down and let him wear underwear (disney's "Cars" and "Thomas the Train"-he loves his underwear), and a shirt. He had quite a few accidents Saturday and Sunday, but made about 3 or 4 successful pee trips on the potty. Monday, he went #2 and today when we went out, he stayed dry the entire time until he was put on the potty. We are so excited about his progress! He still wears pull-ups for naps and nighttime, but all of his nap pull-ups have been dry so far. The thing that brings the biggest smile to my face is the look that Levi gets on his face when he goes on the potty-the look that tells me he is sooooo proud of himself!
