Potty Training...When did he get so BIG?!

Kevin I know has been growing tons.  There seems to be no baby left in him.

Just for kicks, I took his measurement today.  He is 32 inches tall and weighs 25 pounds (roughly).

I decided that now would be a good time to potty train since we don't have any trips planned for awhile.  Week 1 is done.  I had errands to run and still put a diaper him whenever we went out.  We had lots of accidents but also lots of success.  By Friday he finally caught onto making himself pee and recognizing when he needed to poo BEFORE actually going.  I feel like that is kind of huge especially for a almost 22 month old boy.

To potty train, I just rolled up our rug in the front room and ta-da, we are carpet free (well minus a small train rug in the kids room).  If he goes potty in the toilet he gets 3 chocolate chips and he gets to give 3 to Kherington.  If he wets on himself or the ground, I put him on the potty and have him try and go more while I get it cleaned up.  Aside from a 'we need to remember to put our pee pee in the potty' there isn't anymore scolding.

There have been 2 really bad accidents.  The first one he was playing and only wearing pj pants...no undies, no diaper.  He pooed and kept playing.  I noticed the smell and went to inspect.  In the middle of his toys a big chunk had fallen down his pants.  The rest was still smashed in there which made changing him pretty gross.  The second one was was the same day.  He had a diaper on for naptime.  No big deal.  Well, he was napping in our bed.  Pooed while he was asleep, then took it off as soon as he woke up and make a poo trail across our bed (on my side) to come get me.  On the bright side, he came right to me, told me he pooed and waited a good 10 minutes while I finished up getting dinner ready before I could wipe him down (I didn't know at the time there was a poo trail waiting for me on my bed).

He loves his cars undies.  Sadly I only bought one pack at Costco and the rest are just blue/green pattern undies.  Here is his just playing...lining up cars and dancing around them.
