Deserving of a trip to Disneyland. Or a pony. Or maybe even both.

After the poop-on-the-floor episode at lunchtime on Thursday, we made it nearly FOUR WHOLE DAYS without an accident. No problems until a smallish incident this morning... which was totally my fault, because I knew he was going to have to pee an hour after having his breakfast, but I got wrapped up in other stuff and forgot to ask/remind him until he came upstairs with wet pants. HOWEVER... he went right to the toilet and sat down to finish it off. No puddle on the floor - just some wet underpants and jeans. After lunch he actually went upstairs, put his cushiony seat on the toilet and climbed up (with the help of his stool) himself when he felt the urge. I just can't believe how quickly he's caught on to it. I know there will likely be accidents for some time to come but... being 90% of the way there after just a day and a half? That seems too good to be true.

Now that the potty training fiasco is hopefully behind us... it's on to bigger and better things! Which means... the holidays! On Saturday night we kicked off the festive season at the Santa Claus Parade. Liam loved it. He sat in his little lawn chair graciously accepting all the candy canes that kept getting passed his way. Small town parades are all about the fire trucks and the big rigs decked out with Christmas lights, and I don't think Liam would have it any other way. After the parade, it was home for hot chocolate and a late bedtime. We have lots of good holiday stuff in store for the coming weeks... more to come soon.
