Potty Training

Sooooo Brandon is getting closer to being potty trained!!! This past weekend when we were home we had 1 accident in total! He can successfully go #1 in the potty:) He will even let us know when he needs to go...... and then after he goes he is super excited and says "I peed in the pot!"! We wash our hands and high five as our celebration.

This didn't just happen over night so here is a little back story:

Starting back when he turned 2 in October, he seemed so interested in the bathroom process so we decided to buy a mini toilet and a seat for the regular toilet. (Basically anything you could find for potty training) Well that interest lasted about 1 day.... Even though we kept encouraging Brandon to go to the bathroom on the potty he kept saying "no" then it turned into "NO, I don't want to!" So when I was on maternity leave for Tucker I decided that I would revisit potty training. I kept him naked all morning and that basically turned into a meltdown every time I tried to sit him on the potty. (I tried this 3 seperate times) The end result was him running up to me with a diaper saying "I want this on." So once again I decided that it's not the right time and would revisit when he was ready. So recently we have made some progress......Wednesdays at Grandma's he has been peeing in the potty a couple times so we decided that this past weekend we would go full out with underwear. Finally.... we have had progress!! 

Obviously he isn't fully potty trained, but we are getting somewhere:) YAY!!! Cheers to less amount of diapers soon (i hope)
