Yes, that is yours truly in the potty training chair.  I don’t know where this was taken but obviously somebody wasn’t too happy about it!  Judging from the shag carpet and the rock wall behind me it was a looooooong time ago and now I feel old. 

So the time has come and we’ve been talking about the issue of “potty training”.  Honestly I think this scares me more than Connor.  First time parent nerves I guess.  He has used the potty several times.  It’s just not consistent. 

Do ya’ll have any potty training tips or advice you would like to give this Mama that helped you out?

I know everyone says it will happen when they are ready, but he seems genuinely interesting in using the potty right now so we thought why not?  He also spends all day with his cousin Ellie who is already potty trained.  He sees her using the potty and knows she doesn’t wear diapers, so he’s already exposed to “this is what you do when you use the potty” type things.

I would never push him….that is not my goal here.  I’m just saying if he’s taken interest then why not try?  And lets face it…..not buying diapers anymore would be awesome too 🙂
