Potty training day 1

Potty Training Day 1/2, really.

I didn't intend to start potty training until after his nap on Friday, but he left me no choice: he popped in his last diaper after lunch, so I changed him into his big boy pants at 12:45.

By 1:15 he was down for a nap ... in underwear.

I'm keeping track of his accidents only, so I can identify what's harder for him.

I've also decided to encourage him to do as much as possible himself. I walk to the bathroom with him and stay with him, but I encourage him to pull his own pants up and down, and to sit on the potty himself. He loves flushing the potty and washing his hands, and only gets stuck with his underwear every once in awhile.

3:30 - Small accident when he first woke up from his nap. We went to the potty where he finished and pulled on a new pair of pants.

5:40 - Accident playing with his favorite toys after dinner.

6:00 - Stopped fluids, accident watching his daddy play games.

He took a shower at 7, used the potty, and then went to bed in his underwear! We'll see what the morning brings.
