RUSS WENT PEEPEE ON THE POTTY!!
Just once. So far. We had unders on for an hour in the morning, about an hour before nap, and then for two hours tonight. He kept running to the bathroom every other minute tonight, mostly to change unders. (It's not a fashion show!) I took away the box so he can only have one pair. Then we would sit on the potty for ten seconds, get off and play some more, then back to the potty two minutes later. So I found a sand timer and told him he had to sit on the potty until the sand ran out. Finally, right before yogurt, he was mostly successful! He peed on the floor and his unders too, but he did get some into the potty. So he's really quite happy. And so is Mommy.

for any success we get. And whenever DS has an accident we remind him that he's supposed to go on the toilet not in his pants.

I'm hoping that the rest of the week goes as well! We have promised him Mickey Mouse and Batman underwear if he can go without wetting his training pants. We are going to WDW for week beginning Father's Day and I hope we will be completely trained by then-at least down to just wearing a pull-up at night!
please send some my way just in case!!!!! 
I am at my wit's end. Today was better with no pee accidents, but I feel completely wiped. He's also going through a "mama" phase which means, "mama" does everything, even when DH is home. If not, he screams bloody murder. I know someday I'll be wishing myself back to this time when all my little boy wanted was me, but right now, although I am grateful for the lovely snuggles, it can be exhausting! I think it was a previous poster who said when she was potty training one night her DH came home to find her completely wiped out...right now, that would be me.



to you for sticking with it all weekend! I hope he figures it out soon, for your sake. I don't think my DS has a CLUE when he actually has to "go" yet.

I almost gave up a few times last week. When you're constantly cleaning up the floor and helping them change out of wet/dirty clothes and doing laundry, it just seems easier to go back to diapers. We had a few days of accident only days and I just wanted to scream and rip my hair out. DH happened to be telling all this to a dear friend of his that suggested we stop and wait a few months to try again. But we perservered and now it seems DS has finally gotten "it". Something just seemed to click and now DS either tells us when he has to go or just goes on his own - pee only at this point. And the last couple of days he hasn't fought me when I said he needs to try before we get into the car.
