RE: Potty Training?

Funny you should ask. We figured it would be time to start "training" when G started showing more of an awareness -- I wasn't sure he knew what a potty was at all. But today when I picked him up from school, the teacher said that he went #1 in the potty all by himself...standing up no less. I was floored. Really? G? My G?

So what's my strategy now? I think we'll talk about it more at home with him, and it's probably a good time to get a little potty too. He just turned 2 a week ago, and I wasn't planning on tackling this until he was 3, so my expectations are low and I'm in no rush. And I'm in no rush to have him stand up doing it either -- let's start with sitting and avoiding accidents that way, then work on aiming. We'll see!

Thankfully, the 3-day trend from last week of him greeting us in the morning with soiled diaper in hand (while still in his crib) has ceased since Hubby had a man-to-man with him (and since we've been putting him in onesies+pants at night.) {Side note: What do you call pajama pants in the UK? Pajama trousers? That just doesn't sound right. LOL.}
