potties, underpants and a poopy toot.

I've really been dragging my feet on the whole potty thing. I like my diapers and that's that. But mama and daddy decided to put an end to it this week. We've been reading the potty books and practicing sitting on the potty and all that. But I was really resisting the change. As I said, I like my diapers.

Yesterday morning mama had me pantsless so I wouldn't depend on my diapers. And we (I) sat on the potty a lot. I was very proud though. I pottied in my potty chair five times! I only had one accident on the floor. The first time I made the potty in there, mama got so excited and clapped - and I clapped too! Daddy wasn't home so we sent him a message on his cell phone. Mama said I'm a big boy now. The second time mama was excited again and I said Mama I did it! After that I kept telling mama and daddy I'm a big boy.

Last night didn't go well because when I woke up from my nap my tummy hurt and I didn't feel good. Mama tried to have me sit on the potty but I threw up and she said I could have a potty reprieve for the night. I ate a little dinner and had some juice then threw up again. I wanted to go to bed early and nobody tried to talk me out of it. After I got upstairs and in bed mama asked me how my tummy felt and I told her it was all better.

This morning my tummy still felt all better and so I had potty time again. Mama was so happy and excited when I pottied in the potty chair and said it was time for big boy underpants. We went to the Target store and I saw the underpants and was so proud and picked out the ones I wanted. I got some Thomas Train underpants and some Cars underpants and some Sesame Street Elmo ones.

Then mama wanted to go pay for them and leave but I wanted to look around. I found myself at a play kitchen and played there for ten or fifteen minutes.



We got home and all of a sudden I wasn't so sure that I wanted to wear those underpants but daddy insisted. I picked the Thomas ones to wear. They were actually pretty cool and more comfortable than diapers.

By nap time I was ready to be done with the underpants. I sat on the potty one last time and didn't make a potty, just a poopy toot. But I think I'll be ready to the underpants on after nap. Mama showed me my basket of diapers and said that these are the last of them. When I use those up we're all done with diapers. I understand. I don't like change but I think this will work out OK.
