Potty Party Weekend

So we had a little breakthrough last night on the potty train! Some wise mother wrote a blog about potty training and suggested reading to your kid so they relax a little bit. And internet, it worked! YES, we were in there for 45 minutes, YES, he only went a little bit, but YES, we partied like crazy afterwards!

I know we're not through the woods yet, but we've come upon a clearing and I'm hoping we hang out for awhile!

Gavin ran into school this morning all excited about going "pee pee in the potty!" (sorry to all you non-parents out there, these are the things that get you excited when and if you have kids).

Funny, Jeff and I know look at each other and we're like, OK, who's going to Toys R Us to stock up on a bunch of rewards? Don't get me wrong, we were prepared this weekend, but I don't know what either of us was thinking... Actually, I was thinking he'd be trained in 24 hours like my mom always said I was. Jeff's mom doesn't remember how long it took him.

So, reality has bitten a little bit and we're prepared for several weeks (or months) of this. That's OK, we're ready!
