Potty Training 101

We've been working really hard with Tripp on potty training. A while back (like a year ago) Tripp was showing a lot of interest in beginning to use the potty. However, lazy momma over here didn't take advantage of it. Then I went back to work, we moved for the second time, and Tripp started going to a sitter full time all in a 2 week period. The area we saw him regress in was using the potty. He wanted nothing to do with it. When we would ask him about it or try to talk to him about it, he would have none of it. Over the last few weeks, he has slowly started showing interest again. This time I have jumped all over it. This weekend, while we were at home, he has only worn big boy underwear. We've had to put the toddler potty in whatever room he is in at the time and let him run around in just his shirt and underwear, but it has worked! He is telling us when he needs to go and a couple of times, he has gotten his underwear off on his own and pottied without even telling us! Now, we are getting close to mastering peepee. The other? Who knows when that will happen? He's actually had 2 accidents off that in our floor! Yuck! We'll see how he does at the sitter's this week. I'm so proud of him! It will be nice not to have to buy diapers for him anymore!
