This morning after peeing through two diapers (and pairs of shorts) I put a pull-up on Jack and refused to let him wear shorts or pants until he peed on the potty. He was not at all into this to start. He sat on the potty, only because I wouldn't give him any pants when I got off.... (and honestly, I couldn't, he's peed on them all and they are all waiting to be washed, and today was not laundry day.... and that boy doesn't like to be without all his clothes on....)
So he sat and cried and moaned for about an hour on the potty chair. Then he sat in his room for a while. Then when I went to put Jayden down for his morning nap around 8:40 I freed Jack from his room and sat him in the kitchen with juice and a snack.
About 10 minutes later Jeff comes down where I am putting Jayden to sleep and says that Jack just peed and emptied the potty into the toilet and flushed it all by himself!!! Whoa :) Go Jack. So we're all happy.
After that I gave Jack some pants and we went to the park for a while to play while Jayden napped. When we got home he sat on the potty, and peed again! And then before lunch, he peed again! And before naptime, he peed again! And after naptime, he peed again! And before dinner, he peed again, twice (once of his own prompting as he was eating already). So we had quite a few good hours.
Unfortunately after dinner he went outside to play, and while outside, pooped and peed in the pull-up.... but I won't hold that against him for now. He's got another pull-up on, and hopefully he can pee in the potty chair another time to two before bed.
This is the best we've ever done on our potty training adventures... let's hope it continues....
