Potty Trained

Have I mentioned that Ryan is potty trained? Because he is, and I am so happy! I waited until he was really ready to begin seriously potty training. A few previous attempts had resulted in potty chairs being thrown and serious frustration for both Ryan and me. So we took a break and started again at the end of the summer.

At first I was taking him to the bathroom every 15-20 minutes, and it was very tiring. But after Ryan learned how to hold it for longer periods of time, I learned to trust him more when he said he didn't need to "go". He still has the occasional accident when he gets too focused on playing and forgets to come inside, but overall he is doing great! A couple weeks after we started he was not only doing well during the day, but also wearing underpants at night and waking up dry in the morning.

 I am so proud of my big boy!
