Potty Training In Progress!

Perhaps you remember this photo - it used to be in the sidebar? It was taken when Preston was about 14 months... when his interest in the potty started. At the time, he was all about imitating... never sat on that potty with the lid up or his pants off, but he loved to pretend he was going if one of us was going!

Around 17+ months, right around our move, he started showing more interest and telling me more often about his diaper. With the chaos of the move, I couldn't keep up with him and he lost a bit of interest.

Now... he's all about the potty! He will only use the big boy potty, though, and up until the last week or so, he liked going with Daddy much more than Mommy! Same plumbing, I guess! Plus, Daddy is just so much cooler than Mommy!

Now he's going several times a day... by his own request about half the time! And, he always signs potty when he goes! (That's the shaking fist you see in the pics, for those of you who don't know ASL!)

Wow! That is so great! Preston you are going to definitely have to meet Tyler & Cameron and show them that it is ok to potty on the potty. They scream everytime I attempt to put them on the potty.
The underwear is just so cute!!
