Yesterday we hit quite the milestone - first time on the potty! Oliver was playing on the patio nudie and announced he had to go. Our expectations were pretty low and as Adam was leading him inside I hollered that he'd get some M&Ms if he was successful (we are not beyond a little bribery/encouragement in this house). Lo & behold, he did it! A handful of times now he has asked to try the potty, but nothing really came of it - it seemed like curiosity more than anything else and this seemed no different. He doesn't seem to care if he is in a dry diaper and doesn't show much interest in the toilet, so we weren't going to bother trying potty training until he was 2 1/2. It probably helps that he is in a new class at daycare now that has a kiddie toilet and classmates that are already potty trained. Fingers crossed this is just the start of some consistent toilet usage....
