Austin

The closer Austin gets to his 2nd birthday the more he seems like a little boy and less like an infant. Since we jumped into a bunch of home improvement projects last month he was very eager to help. He got his hands on a paint roller while were were working on our ceiling and painted his pants, shirt and nose. We decided the pack-n-play was a good idea.
So, Austin loves to use the potty. Every time I put him on the toilet he goes. When I ask him if he wants to go, he runs to the bathroom, but he can't tell me when it's time. We tried to officially start potty training today. I bought him big boy underpants and put them on today. I took him potty every 20 minutes and we had a great morning. However, after nap I decided to give him a little more time between bathroom visits and of course he had a little accident. The difference between him and the other kids was that he didn't really care. Megan and Ethan would stop in their tracks and start crying once they realized they wet themselves. Austin just kept on playing. Maybe he is not quite ready yet... guess we'll wait a little longer. But what a big boy for wanting to go... yeah Austin.
