A Momentous Day


A week or so ago we bought Riley some big boy underwear (Cars) and a new potty seat (also Cars) and started the dialog about potty training. I will frequently ask him if he wants to go potty and we will grab Where's Waldo and go take a seat. Nothing usually happens but it is good practice. So, this morning I asked him if he wanted to go potty in the toilet and he said yes so we took him in and HE DID IT!!! He went potty!!! We of course fussed and he was clapping and so happy that he did it. It was great. Riley called Dada at work and Aunt Mimi and Grammy to tell them the big news. It was pretty cute how excited he was about doing it.

Cutest picture ever! He looks so adult sitting there on the toilet reading his Where's Waldo! What a nugget! I've never heard him so excited before when he called me this morning to tell me he went pee on his "Ka-Chow"! What a doll!

He can find Waldo sometimes. He was done on the potty before he could find him in a new picture.:)
