It's Potty Time!

Potty training Michael has officially begun!! He has been wearing Pull-Ups for a couple of weeks now. Pull-ups do have their advantages and they were helpful when he first started showing interest because they are so much easier for him to pull down. Frankly, I don't think they're that much different than diapers, and he could care less when he was wet. Yesterday I took him to Wal-Mart and let him pick out his brand new big boy underwear. We left the store with 15 pairs of undies, a new backpack to take to school (for all his changes of clothes), and a new Thomas the Train toy. Michael was very excited!
I am extremely proud to say that Michael wore big boy underwear ALL day (except for nap). He only had one accident at 6:00 this evening! I really thought we'd get through the whole day without an accident, but I was not as diligent about asking him about potty later in the day. Tomorrow he'll wear big boy underwear to school. Cross your fingers!
