Will is potty trained! There are no more diapers in our house!
In early May, I started putting him in Pull Ups to practice pulling pants up and down and sitting on the potty, and one day I realized that he was dry almost every time I took him to try. After a few more days of keeping the Pull Up mostly dry, we tried underwear...
...and he did great! We rarely had more than a couple of accidents a day that first week, and then he quickly got it - mostly. It took another 5-6 weeks to get comfortable with the "#2" part of potty training, but we kept at it, and he figured it out - and finally got the promised bowl of ice cream.
Since then, it has been smooth sailing. He rarely has accidents, and it was so much better than I was expecting! A couple of weeks ago I realized I hadn't changed a diaper in almost two months, so I gathered up every diaper I could find and gave them away. He still wears a Pull Up at night (and usually wakes up dry, but I plan to keep him in them until he can use go to the bathroom without assistance), but other than that, he is totally in underwear. Way to go Will!!!

So proud of Will! (I'll bet Mommy had a big smile on her face while she was getting rid of those diapers!)
