they're just cute photos of cb decorating easter cookies with his girlfriend and then again with one of his best buds.

and they're supposed to distract me from the fear and anxiety i feel about the fact that we are starting hardcore potty training tomorrow.

whoo. hoo.

choi boy still tells us that he'll start using the potty "soon" or "tomorrow" (his continued daily response). because of that, we haven't forced anything on him, and to date, he's only sat on the potty twice (with um, no end result).

but, with all the traveling we have to do this summer between weddings and trips, we wanted to be sure he was solidily potty trained before the start of summer. and, with this week being my spring break, i thought it would be the perfect time to tackle the big PT since i'll be home with CB all day every day.

we'll be using a three-day method that my friend, joanna, recommended to me. and as much as it is being met with fear and trembling, a part of me is a teensy bit excited to get this show on the road and see how my little boy takes on this new challenge.

so, tomorrow morning, we'll "throw away" (i.e. store away for another little one ;) ) all the diapers in the house, cb will don some big boy underwear, and we'll just go for it!

wish us luck! and hope that i don't get too many of cb's famous stink eyes...

  2. Don't worry - I'm sure CB is ready! Life is much easier once he is fully trained!

  3. How's it going? Hugs!!! Love the pictures! I think he's looking a bit too grown up these days though. Adorable! :)
