Potty Trained!

Jackson has been wearing big boy underwear for about two weeks now!  We have been introducing him to the potty since I bought him a potty chair about a year ago.  We didn't really start pushing the potty training until right before his 2nd birthday but we found that he just wasn't quite ready.  From then on we would just ask him if he had to use the potty and if he didn't want to, we didn't make him.  Then he started waking up dry from naps and bedtime but would keep going in his pull-up, so we decided to try underwear and see how he did.  Amazingly, he did great!  He now only occasionally has accidents, mostly #2, when he gets too busy and forgets.  He still rarely tells us that he has to go so we have to remember to ask him.  It is so nice not having two in diapers anymore both for the cost and cleanup.  We are so proud of our little man!  Obviously from the pictures he is still learning where the undies go and how they work!! (I did not pose him, he put the all the undies on his head while I was folding laundry.  I just took the pics and laughed.)
