Let's Talk About Poop!

Okay, not my favorite subject, but I did say I'd post an update in my last entry. Well, he finally went late Tuesday afternoon...on the potty!!! Then again twice today...on the potty...while wearing underwear!!! Yippee!!!

He did pretty good overall today, but I was only able to put him in underwear once since all his others were dirty. He did have an accident while wearing them, but it was 100% my fault and not his. He had to go SOOOO bad and ran into the bathroom, but I'd left his insert in the bathtub after cleaning it and forgot to put it back on the toilet. Poor thing couldn't hold it long enough and peed right in front of the toilet. :( So, we had to resort to Pull-Ups the rest of the day. We did get to Wal-Mart to buy some more underwear, and I did laundry, too, but we were running around town all afternoon/evening, so he just stayed in a Pull-Up (he only sees them as diapers, so they're pretty much useless). We'll be at a playdate tomorrow morning, but we'll give the new underwear a go in the afternoon. I just wish that I was brave enough to switch to underwear cold turkey. We'll be at a new friend's house for our playdate tomorrow, though. I'm not ready to risk it yet.

You know, I was thinking...we're going on vacation to Destin on Aug. 16...10 days from now. I'm wondering how well he'll do in regards to potty training. We'll have at least an 8 hour drive to deal with. I guess I timed this whole potty training thing just perfectly, huh? :p Oh well... I'll at least *attempt* to keep him on track. Maybe I ought to buy the kind of travel potty where we can just pull off the side of the road and whip it out for him to use. Hmmm... A bit weird in my eyes, but perfect for a toddler.
