McDonald's, Here We Come!

Matthew James has (drum roll, please) given up the diapers and is wearing underwear! I decided to see if he would wear them yesterday after his nap (he has been very resistant thus far) and he agreed. He had one accident, but has been in underwear since. He even wore them to bed last night with no accidents. Even if he starts have mulitiple accidents, he's staying in the underwear. He's very proud of himself!

So, after going poo-poo successfully this morning, he got his coveted tape measure from Daddy. He's been measuring everything, including the sky. If he stays dry and clean until Sunday (minus accidents while we're out or on our weekend trip) we'll be going to McDonald's for lunch on Sunday. It seems that cold turkey wins out again for Matthew. It's how we got rid of bottles and pacifiers and I guess now diapers. (Well, he was in pull-ups and did take himself potty during the day, but still used it too often.)

I'm so excited! Can you tell??

Nothing like poo in the potty to bring a little sunshine to your day! Ah, the days of potty dances and cheers. Glad they are over...well, not quite. I have 2 babysitting kids that I am working with. The joy will never end.

As long as he never thinks painting the walls with poo is a fun thing to do--life should get better in the diaper changing world for you.
