Day #?
Slow to update. Today was Nicolae's 3rd birthday!
His training is going well and we've switched from little potty chair to using the big toilet, and tonight we bought him a seat for it! Much easier for him than sitting on the seat without. He almost fell in!
Lately it's been no accidents except for today when we had 2 poopy ones. But not full on. Just little bits.
We went out for 3 hours with no accidents though! He even got to play games and be a big boy with his training. I still wonder what his reaction will be to a urinal.
He woke up with a dry diaper too, which was awesome! My husband asked if I was going to put him in underwear tonight but that's jumping the gun a little. Maybe if he stays dry consistently for a week or so we'll switch him over to undies.

Day Fourteen
Day fourteen. That means 2 weeks! Two weeks with only having diapers at night (except that one time we went out all day).
Today I learned something. Potty training toddlers can be mean. Sure it's all high-fives and good jobs, but if you cross them while they need to go to the potty, watch out.
Nic was standing at the big potty (porcelain, adult toilet) for 5 minutes without doing anything... just holding himself. Well I had to pee..... I directed him toward his little potty and he yelled at me! He didn't want to sit to pee but I really had to go! When I finally got him to sit down (because there is no way he's going to stand up and pee with that little toilet) he went instantly. Awesome.
After that he refused to talk to me for about 30 minutes.
No accidents.

Day Thirteen
We had a minor accident today but he ran to the bathroom himself!
Just look at the progress he's made!
I always asked him if he had to go, even if he said no, I'd take him. Now I ask and he'll say yes or no. Minimal accidents. He's more aware of his body....
Except today we were in and out all morning because he kept saying he had to poop. He did.... after like the 5th time. All in a row. We were in and out.... then back in quickly.
Our next step will be getting out of night time diapers. Though only having one diaper a day from him has cut down my wash load a lot!

Day Twelve
I'm failing at keeping up with this.
He's doing pretty well though. Only a few accidents here and there. Most of the time it's a poopy accident.
He also doesn't want to go back to diapers and complains about it at night when he has to wear them. Sometimes he stalls at bedtime by saying he has to go potty!

Day Seven (Part 3)
Only one accident today!
I was going to put him in a diaper so that I could take him with me across town but he said no and that he wanted to wear his undies, so the husband said I could leave him home.
I really think we're getting somewhere!
