Our son, Wes, is different than R & A. I mean, all my children are different in their own ways, but W is very different than R & A were at 2. Well basically then entire time he's been alive he's been louder, more independent, his own decision maker. W will do what W wants to do when W wants to do it. I feel very confident that later on in life, W won't give into the peer pressure of his surroundings. I love his strong will and the little boy that God has made him. Because of his strong will, he has been a cinch to potty train. My plan was to train him during spring break in March. But since we were on our second week of snow days, I felt like should try since I was certain I would lose my spring break. It only took like 2 days. Seriously. Once he had a couple of accidents (and really, only 2 or maybe 3), he was good. We started Thursday Feb 13th. I put him in underwear for the morning and he did great. He didn't have any accidents and he peed twice. He wore a diaper for naps, but then I didn't put him back in underwear because they were going outside to play in the snow. He didn't get underwear back on until Monday and the following Tuesday (2/18) he was good. His last accident he's had was that Tuesday 2/18. We don't even have to ask him. He tells us. Like I said, once W makes up his mind, he's good and we can't change it. He don't want to wear a pull-up for naps or nighttime, but we just pull his undies on top.
My motivate for potty training came a few weekends ago (2/8) when I hosted a Pull-Ups training pants party. I applied at House Party.com and was accepted for this one. It was fun (at least I thought so). Guests were mostly church friends, but Jenelle came with Ava and I was so excited for that. I think she had a good time. We made valentines for our families, played, ate lunch and had dessert. I took a group picture of all the kids holding up a pull-up and that's about it. I was most proud of my little potty dessert treats for the kids. I found it on Pinterest and they turned out cute.
It's safe to say I have 1 more kid in diapers now.
