I will admit I was a little worried going into this day when it came to potty training. Tyler woke up a LOT last night. Around 4 am I finally put him in a pull-up hoping that would stop the waking up. It did, but he woke up in the morning soaked, almost through the pull-up.
In the morning he had another dribble accident and then nothing again until nap, which he woke up dry. Right after nap he also had occupational therapy, so we were all somewhat distracted during this time that I knew he had to go. He had two more dribble accidents during his therapy time. I was starting to wonder if yesterday was a fluke.
We went downstairs and I put in Cars, hoping that if he was going to do these dribbles, maybe at least some of then would go in the potty like yesterday. Well he had a few dribbles all in the potty and the next thing I know he is sitting there for a long time kinda squirming. I look in and he had pooped in the potty!!!!!!! What relief!
We went out to dinner tonight with him in underwear. Right as we were finishing and about to pay the bill he said he had to go. We went but there was a line and by the time we got to the stall he had dribbled a little and then wouldn't go again. On the way home he kept saying he had to go potty. When we got home he sat on the potty and did a full stream potty!!!! He was a little more damp, like he had dribbled a couple more times but he did awesome! He is trying to hold himself and wait til he is on the potty! He is telling us when he has to go! There is no turning back now. Hopefully the next weeks will get easier and easier. I am also hopeful that the dribbles will come less and less as well. Although I do appreciate that he only dribbles when he isn't on the potty!
And on an even happier note, my posts won't be about potty training anymore!

This is so exciting!!! That is awesome that he's picked up on it so quickly and is doing so well. We haven't gotten serious about the pt'ing here...we will soon though. I am tired of buying diapers! Your posts have been encouraging for me. :)
