Nailed It!

I think we are done with diapers/pull-ups for the big guy.  I'm not popping any champagne quite yet, but the possibility of not having to buy daytime pull-ups is putting an economic grin on my face.  The shit's expensive!

I'm not saying the kid was lighting quick with picking up on the concept.  Yes, my signature patience came through.  I'd get so angry with the guy because he knew how to poop in the potty yet would never tell us when he had to pee even when we asked.  He would say that he didn't have to pee, but then two seconds later pee in his pull-up.  We started just taking him to the toilet to make him go.

I'm not totally ignorant, I know that there will be accidents.  He can't help it.  Sometimes he gets so immersed in what he's doing that he forgets.  However, I have a good idea oh when he needs to go.  My inner geek timed the kid.  He goes just about every two hours.  I know, nerdy, but it gives me a good sense for planning.

He still pees at night while sleeping and we have him in a night time pull-up but I don't care about that.  He can pee all he wants then!  He'll get there soon.  Granted he's not like his girlfriend who will get up in the middle of the night to use the bathroom and go back to bed.  But eventually, no rush.  I just hope his accidents aren't the pooping kind.  Eeesh.  The thought.  Yuck!
