big boy

Well i just have a few minutes and wanted to post a little update on the toddler bed. The first night was a breeze. He did not get up once. Then the second night he was up for 2 hours. I first heard him crying so I ran in there. He wasn't there. So i followed the crys and found him setting on the top step of the stairs with all his blankies in hand. I took him back to bed and rocked him just a minute. He must have thought it was time to get up. Just minutes after I got back in bed hear he came out of his room again. I hollered at him and he came in our room. I took him back to bed once again. This went on for about 2 hours. I was very unsure about this new bed at that point. But ever since then he has went to bed good and stayed in bed all night. Every once in a while he will wake up and cry but he usually stays in bed until I get in there. I rock him for about 2 minutes and put him back in bed and he is good.

Next updated... potty training. He is really in to Pee Pee like daddy... aka standing up. So he has a little step stool in by the toilet that he can pull out. He ran in there last night right after we got home and pulled his pants down and i helped take his diaper off (he can do it himself but it takes a little longer that way). So he stood there a little while... and nothing. Then I let him run around with no pants on for a while. I was making supper in the kitchen and he ran by... pee pee, pee pee. So I let him run in there while I washed my hands and stuff. Before I even got in there i could hear it hitting the water. He was so proud. The funny thing is though after he does it he is so happy and we clap and stuff so he wants to do it again. He gets made when i tell him he has to wait till next time. So then we decided to put big boy pants on. He ended up peeing in the potty 4 times and had 0 accidents!!!!!!!!!! I could not believe it. I ask him if he wanted to pee pee on the potty this morning but he is kind of like me... not a morning person. So he is never really into it in the morning. I'm not going to get to excited this usually only last about a day and today he probably won't even try. Oh well... it's progress I guess.
