Well I guess we're trying the potty training thing AGAIN! He started it all on his own and then wanted nothing to do with it! Now he goes back and forth from crying when we put him on it and then loving it the next day! The last couple of days he's been pretty good if I just put him on it and don't ask him. He fusses for a minute and then his body just automatically does what it's supposed to and he's so shocked he stops fussing and gets happy that he did it! These pictures are from the other night. His girlfriend Lily was over to play and we tried to get both of them to use the potty! We thought if they saw each other do it that it would encourage both of them. Lily tired and then Parker went! I let them paint as a reward! This is the first time Parker has gotten to use watercolor paints! Thanks Nana and PopPop for the book and paints! Both of the kids had a great time!

Yesterday we got Parker to go in the potty several times and he finally let us put the big boy underwear on him again. (He wore them one night a long time ago and cried every time I tried to put them on him afterwards!) He was so excited to be a big boy! The problem came when it was time for bed! He wanted to wear them to sleep and I didn't want to have to change a wet bed in the middle night! When I told he had to wear the diaper for night time he cried and told me diapers were for babies! :( I tried offering the pull ups and he refused! Finally when I told him it was time to put his jammies on he said he was ready for the diaper! I was so happy that I didn't have to force him to wear the diaper! Hopefully he'll want to try the underwear again today! I don't know what to do about night time once we really get going with this though! He just won't wear the pull ups!
