Here's my funny, sweet, and motivated 2 year old. Over the holidays he started showing an interest in potty training. I ignored it because we were so busy and I didn't have the time to do it. I put it aside for a while and then last week decided I needed to buckle down and do it because I really didn't want to go buy another box of diapers. So I bought a package of Pullups and we started the potty training. I gave him a little lecture about how he needed to tell me when he had to go. The whole week was amazing. Not only did he only have 1 accident the whole entire week, but he also woke up from his naps dry and even woke up at night if he had to go. So, after switching from Pullups to underwear or "big boy pants" as we call them we decided we also needed to get him out of his crib so he could take himself potty at night. I've been kind of hesitant to take him out of a crib because Carter was such a pain about escaping all night long out of his room as soon as we put him in a toddler bed. Last night was Lincoln's first night in his new bed and he was amazing. We told him to go to sleep and stay in his bed unless he needed to go potty. He went right to sleep without a fight and woke up at 3 am and took himself potty. This kid can't stop amazing me. If only his 4 year old brother was as obedient as him. We feel so blessed to have our boys in our life and enjoy being their parents.

Aw, sweet little Lincoln! Congratulations on a diaper-free house!
That's so great! Go Lincoln! :) I've been putting off potty trainig Mason for a LOOOOONG time. I guess I've heard too many horror stories. Hopefully your good luck can rub off on us... when I eventually decide to do it.
