Potty Trained?
I don’t know. When can you technically claim that?! We still have diapers in the house for naps and nigh nigh time, but besides that he’s in his little underoos full time. We’ve had a few accidents here and there, but for the most part he’s rocking this whole stage. Tonight he told me he had to go “pee pee in the potty”, walked over to the toilet and stood on one leg while he shimmied his little cheeks onto the seat, went pee pee, unrolled a reasonable amount of toilet paper, wiped himself, then got down and flushed the toilet! I just stood there so proud. We high-fived and I told him he got 2 M&M’s for that (2 M&M’s is the going rate for poopies in the potty :)). We were both pretty excited!
We had gotten Asher one of those big boy potties that sit on the floor to introduce the idea to him, but I’ve gotta say after the first poopies went in there I was completely done with that thing. Maybe there is some trick, or some easy way to clean them, but I just couldn’t stomach all that. So, he graduated to the really big boy potty pretty quickly, ha! Also, the magical power that a little M&M holds is pretty amazing :).
So, I’m not sure we can completely claim the potty trained label yet, but we’re sure proud of our little boy!

Wow, I’m impressed!! Great job Asher!! I’ll be getting tips from you here one of these days, Rach!! Yikes!
WOO HOO!!! This is a huge step in growing up! Oh, just think of all the money you’re saving on not buying diapers anymore!
WAH HOO!!!!! So happy for all 3 of you. Anything cuter than underoos?
Awesome! I agree with you Rachel…being able to flush rather than clean the potty is way better.
YEAH, ASHER! Grandma is so proud of you.
Sounds like he’s potty trained to me!!! Wahoo! Huge milestone–way to go, Asher!!! He looks so grown-up in his big boy underwear!
