JD is doing so well with potty training. We do better with peepee than #2, but I have heard from lots of people that it is normal for them to get one and not the other right away. Sometimes he will tell us he has to go and sometimes he will just go right where he stands.
I was worried this week with him at Mrs. Jerri’s house. Sometimes they do well at home and not at daycare or visa versa, but he did well. Monday he had an accident while napping, but Tuesday and Wednesday he did wonderfully. Then I totally forgot his bag on Thursday and, yep, you guessed it, 2 accidents! UGH! Thankfully Michael brought it to her very early that morning so he wasn’t running around with nothing on his bottom!

I have found a downside to potty training that Crys warned me about but I didn’t think it was going to be as bad as it is: the SMELL OF THE BATHROOM!!! OMG!!! JD has not figured out that he can control the path of his stream yet and has just watched it arch off the toliet! So, I walked in there tonight to give him a bath after we had been gone all day and all I could smell was urine!! OH GROSS!! Those of you who know me well know that I cannot stand bodily fluids!! I will never understand why guys–of ALL ages, might I add–can’t seem to make it IN THE POTTY!!! I have cleaned many public bathrooms in my day and the men’s room is always the worst!! So, tonight, after JD went to bed I went on a cleaning spree!! I took the Clorox Cleaning Bleach spray and drowned the toliet and floor with bleach. Then I actually took a scrub brush and scrub the toliet and floor around the toliet! I bleached his little seat, the toliet bowl brush and everything within a few feet of the toliet!! Then I washed the tub and all the toys (just because they needed it, not because of pee) in bleach as well. Finally I mopped the floor. Then, once it has dried, I am going to spray it with Hard Surface Bleach Spray. So, my son’s bathroom doesn’t smell like pee now…and won’t until he wakes up tomorrow morning and misses or sprays again!! But, even with all the stinky smell, I will take it over changing diapers!!!

I thought I would add some pics of his boxer briefs! How cute that they make little boys undies to look like men’s!!! LOVE IT!!
