Pottygeddon

Week 1 of "Operation Potty train Drew" has officially come to an end....and we have had many successes.  We had decided to go the "commando" route, ie. Drew was not allowed to wear underwear or pants for the first 3 days.  We pumped him full of liquids on the first day and he did pretty well--only a few accidents (we also told him he had to stay in the kitchen).  He spent most of the day sitting on the potty chair or on a towel watching DVD's but he seemed to get the hang of it.  I am pleasantly surprised that he has been doing so well with #2.  He has produced quite the "load" 2x and in both instances, he told us he had to go before he did it.  We had only one set-back where he went in a pull-up but that was because Mark was feeding Nora and Drew could not make it to the potty in time.  He does seem to have more accidents when he is actually wearing underwear so if he does that, he has to go pantsless the rest of the day.  So far yesterday and this morning he has kept his underwear dry.

I know there will be set-backs in the next few weeks but it is such a relief to see that Drew is getting it.  IT seems to be going much better than with Will but we shall see...
