Jack continues to use the potty completely on his own! We purchased some training underwear this weekend...and he wore underwear all weekend (though we put him in a diaper at night since he sleeps with us) and he only had one accident and that was during his nap in the crib. He is consistently going number one and number two on the potty. This morning, before I left for work, we asked him if he was going to come outside to say goodbye to Mommy, and he said "uh huh" and then gasped and said "Mommy Poop". He ran back into the bathroom (his underpants were already off as he had just gone number one) and he sat right on the potty and went poo poo. I know he will have accidents...but he is basically out of diapers except at night now.
I can't believe this! We really have done nothing to encourage him until he started sitting on the potty and actually going. Then we just started asking him if he had to go, and then giving him one M&M when he went number one and two M&M's when he would go number two in the potty (as well as kisses and encouragement). What he started on Friday is to go pee pee just a little bit....so he could get an M& M and then go right back in to go a little more to get another M&M...etc. He was holding it to try to get as many M&M's as possible! He is my amazing baby.
His vocabulary is growing like crazy too. He astounds us by saying words we didn't know he knew ("spoon", "sausages", "Yay," "casserole", "house", "ghost", "pizza", "Wow", etc.) Last night when we were at the store Jack was amazed by all of the Halloween decorations....and just kept repeating..."Wowweee". It was so cute.
