Let The Potty Training Commense

T minus 5 days until the start of potty training. I'm getting excited because I actually think he's ready. He's been:

Excited about his big boy undies
Telling me when he goes pee pee and poo poo
Loves reading his potty book
Saying yes when I ask him if he wants to start going on the potty
The last few days he's been taking off his diapers (pee pee ones) and bringing them to me. Okay this one is not fun but a sure sign he's ready.
He wants to be changed as soon as he goes and willingly lays down for me. That's a big one!

I ordered him some training pants through Amazon. One pair was relatively expensive ($15) but they are so cute. The other ones are from Gerber and they were 3 pair for $9.99.

Farm Animals will be a hit with Eli!



Elmo says "You did it" in different languages :)
He's already got his potty. For over a year we've had the thing. He just wasn't ready yet.

I also ordered some new books related to potty and some things to keep him occupied for our many trips to the bathroom. This boy can hardly stay still for 5 seconds on the potty, or anywhere really, so I'm thinking this is going to be my only challenge as far as being emotionally ready.


Both books are highly rated and Eli is looking forward to his "poop" book to come in the mail. He's such a boy.



I'll let you know how our first day goes (Tuesday).
