Potty

So Henrik went potty in the potty for the 2nd time today. The first time we had to help, but I think after the first time he figured out that it makes mom and dad super proud when he sits on his potty and even more so when he goes in his potty.

We bought him a potty about 3+ months ago (I can't really remember exactly when) anyway, for the first month or two all he did was carry it around the house and take the bucket part out and put it back in. We have however had him follow us to the bathroom every time we go and we talk about the potty and then point to his potty. Other than that we haven't done much.

The thing is that I hadn't really planned on potty training for a bit. I was in the mood to start before I got pregnant but not only had I decided it would be better to wait until he understood more, but I also have not felt up to it. So now I don't really know what to do. I mean he now sits on his potty a lot but has only gone twice and well I don't know if it's a fluke or if I should just go with it big time.

Soooooooooooooooo anyway...................... if anyone has any tips let me know.

I started to try with Shalon a few days ago and decided that it is not worth the headache yet. Wes put underwear on her and we were trying to work with her but then she wet herself while we were eating dinner and didn't tell us... so we are waiting a while...

Yeah I will not try normal underwear yet. I know he's not ready for that yet. I think he more at the beginning stages of figuring out when he needs to use the potty.
