Potty Training

July 18, 2007

Okay - so here's the deal. Alan is in the process of the potty training thing. Several months ago he would do his little business in the potty but didn't wanted to go tee tee. Well now he is doing both but ... only when he wants to do it. If I push him - he wants no part in it. So...I kinda let him do his own thing and he does what he needs to do when he wants to do it. He is so proud of himself. Once he goes he runs down the hall and calls me to come into the bathroom and sure enough - he has done what is needed. He will even sometimes call Carrigan in the bathroom because he is so excited. It won't be long and he will totally be potty trained.

I took these pictures of him yesterday. He has been wearing big boy undies for almost 9 months now on and off but he will not wear them right. Scroll down to see.....

HAHAHA! If I tell him that he needs to turn them around his answer is "No - want Diego here" and he points to his front. It does not matter what kind of undies Alan is wearing - Thomas, Spiderman, Diego, etc..... he wants to see the characters. When he stands up it almost looks like he is wearing a thong! He is constantly pulling them out in the back if you know what I mean. It is so funny. My child has a mind of his own.

I just had to share!

I hope that everyone is having a great summer. We are off to Daytona and St. Augustine next Wednesday or Thursday (we haven't decided if we want to go a day early and spend an extra day in St. Augustine). I'll post more when we get back.

If your wondering who will take care of the animals - Princess will be boarded and she is getting fixed while she is there, The bird and fish will be fine while we are gone and Dixie will have plenty of food and plenty water to last her a lifetime! Dixie loves her backyard so she will be just fine with her dog house, the shed and the camper for plenty of shady places.
