Goodbye diapers/pull-ups....hello potty!

Colt is officially half way potty trained! He's half way because be hasn't over come the 'fear' of going #2 in the potty yet but he has nailed down t-t'ing in the potty. It was actually so easy! His teachers did most of the work and we finally gave in and started working with him at home. At first I would hear about how great he was doing at school but as soon as we get home he didn't want to go for us. But all of a sudden something clicked (probably was tired of getting wet) he started going for us after we asked him and now he tells us when he needs to go! Yaya! It was definitely much easier waiting until he was ready. His teacher said he will 'hold it' longer than any other child and when he goes...he goes and goes and goes! At school each classroom has a little bathroom with a miniature working toilet (it's so cute). Colt will stand up and go there. It's hilarious watching him. He will lean his legs against the potty, ach his back as far as he can (so the stream will make it to the water)and put his hands behind his back (ha!). Can't get those hands dirty! At home he sits. He won't stand, not sure why? He will also hold it all night...80% of the time he will be dry in the morning:)

We are so proud of our big boy!  He's going to LOVE me for this!


One time I didn't give Colt a prize for going and sure enouph he remembered later.  I tried to push it off.  I was trying to hug and kiss him and he said "no, don't love me.  I will love on you after you get me prize"  Clever.
