Potty Training: The Final Round

I have to brag on Jacob. He slept in a Pull Up for the first time last night and woke up DRY! I am so proud of him. Hopefully this isn't a fluke or beginners luck but only time will tell. 2 nights ago he slept in the last disposable diaper we had. I made up my mind right then that I was NOT going to buy anymore diapers. He has been using the potty since June but I haven't really pushed him to go all the way. A lot of the time it is just more convenient for me to keep a diaper on him so I don't have to worry about finding a toilet in a crunch. I have even told him to "just pee in the diaper" before when it was inconvenient to take him to the bathroom. Talk about sending this poor guy mixed signals. Thankfully the only issue we have is with peeing and I have not had to change a dirty diaper in months. He wore underwear all day yesterday (and had several accidents) and then slept in the Pull Up. But we are not turning back. He is wearing underwear again today and hopefully he will catch on quickly.

Wish us luck!
