It Was a No-Diaper Day!

Today my not-yet-three-year-old son went without diapers until bedtime! It took a huge leap of faith for me to dress him in those thick, absorbant undies and actually take him out in public, but it totally worked. He had no accidents, and successfully used the potty in Publix, after which he excitedly called his "Gram" to share the news.

I actually expected him to wear his diaper at naptime (he sometimes naps and sometimes doesn't, but he has to stay in his room for a while every day), but he had other plans. He stripped it off and slept naked in his recliner (one of the few upholstered pieces of furniture in my house - I was sweating it). I can't believe he didn't have an accident!

When I have more time I'll write about exactly how this came about, since traditional potty-training "sit on the potty at scheduled intervals" didn't work for him at all. I had to use my creative dog training skills (taught to me by my manipulative and lazy Whippet) to figure out how to reach this milestone with my son.

We actually had a banner day yesterday too when he successfully swam across my in-laws' small pool. My baby is growing up!
