Diapers NO More!!

I had many different opinions and comments when I potty trained Wesleigh at 19 months. Some of which were "it was a fluke", "it won't happen that way twice", and my favorite "you just got lucky". I took all of them in stride, but inside it secretly made me even more determined to train Ethan just as early and SUCCEED!!

But truthfully, I have been dreading potty training Ethan. He just has that "little stinker" personality and I was afraid it was going to be a battle!! But, Sunday night I went to WalMart and bought 3 new packages of the smallest undies they make 2T/3T. He started Monday morning by having gone poopoo in his diaper before I got him out of bed, but we put his undies on and had a fairly successful day. He had 3 complete accidents and 2 times where he peed a little in his undies then stopped and looked at me and we ran to the bathroom and finished in the potty.

Tuesday, he started the morning off by pooping in the potty, and had 2 accidents in the morning, and was good to go after that.

Today, he had one accident, pooped in the potty like a total champ!!

I NEVER NEVER NEVER dreamed it would be this easy! My 18 month old potty trained like a dream in only a few days!!

Look what a big boy he is!!

I am not foolish enough to think that we will not have set backs and struggles along the way! But, I am so incredibly proud of my little boy and look forward to not buying diapers anymore!!

Never a Dull Moment....

These boys keep me running, laughing, and shaking my head. Lately it seems that Wesleigh is always saying something new that totally cracks us up. He truely is a minature person who has a full vocabulary, and a sense of humor!

He helped me make cookies this morning, but he actually spent more time grabbing the loose chocolate chips and cramming them in his mouth as fast as he could.

Ethan slept thru the cookie adventure because he is still taking morning naps! Thank goodness! He is always on an adventure. This week he conquered climbing the 5 foot ladder of our playset and sliding down.........OVER AND OVER AND OVER again!!

He is so very careful about it, but it still scares me. He is talking more every single day. I couldn't even begin to list all of his words, but he is absorbing life around him like crazy!

Last night was Daddy's last night for midnights for a while. Thank the LORD. I'm so glad that is over, and so his he.

Wesleigh sliding, but he is in a phase where he refuses to look at the camera

His new cheese ball smile

This is classic Ethan....he has been told not to play in the water, so as he sticks one hand in he looks around to see if anyone is looking!!

I love this picture, but he looks so grown up!

Please explain this....

"Do you see the white thing at his ankle????? That is his diaper. This happen several times a day. He gets it off no matter what he is wearing. This morning we were all hanging out in the living room and I picked him up to cuddle him and he didn't have a diaper AT ALL!!!! We found it laying on the floor. Seriously, how does the child do it??? His outfit is one piece, long sleeves, and snaps between the legs!!!!"

Coming Soon...

I've been absent for a while, though I can't imagine why!! These two crazy sweet boys keep me so busy some day I feel as though I am chasing my tail!

We are on vacation right now, but I will try to be a better blogger soon!!!
