Henry is potty trained!

We are so proud of our little guy! We have been working on potty training over the past few weeks and he is diaper and pull-up free while he is awake! Such a different experience compared to Samantha and I think it was because he was SO motivated to wear "panties" just like her.

A few funnies I want to remember from this experience:
-Henry ALWAYS refers to his undies as panties. We have tried calling them undies, choneys, big boy pants...he just goes right back to panties. Trust me we have a wide variety of gender appropriate undies from Batman to Toy Story. We don't care at all. It is actually pretty funny watching other people's faces when he calls his undies his panties.
-During the first few days when we were asking him to try and go he would step up to the potty, try and if he couldn't go he would say, "I tan't" in this sweet, surprised little voice as if he was truly surprised that he couldn't.
-When I ask him to shake at the end to get the pee-pee off he bounces at the knees and shakes his whole body which makes the pee-pee fly everywhere.
-He will pee ANY-where. The boy has peed on more trees and rocks and in more parking lots than Samantha and I combined.
-When he realizes he has to go he yells, "Pee-pee's coming!" as if the delivery of a baby is imminent. Then he takes off his shorts and panties and runs for the potty.
-Any time he is around water he has to go. Even if he went 5 minutes ago.
-He is doing a great job waking up from naps dry and has very minimal in his diaper in the am. We are going crazy with praise for this because it would be AWESOME to be just done buying diapers.

Yay for my Henrys!


Beads definitely help with accuracy!


Noah and Henry were excited to wear same same Batman panties!
