Sit on Potty!

For the first time last Thursday, Nathan peed in the toilet! Right before his bath, he always pulls off his own diaper. I noticed that his little "pee pee" was a little hard so I asked if he had to go pee. He nodded his head and said he wanted to sit on the big potty. So I put him on and about 30 seconds later, he peed! We were so happy. Then yesterday Dan reported that Nathan wanted to sit on the potty again and told Dan to leave and give him privacy! He gave him a magazine and a few minutes later he checked on him and saw some pee in the toilet. We're far from him being potty trained, but it's a great start. Previously he refused to sit on the big toilet so we bought a small one for him. Wouldn't you know it, as soon as we buy it he sits in it for 1 second with his clothes on, but didn't want to sit in it with his diaper off. He wanted to sit on the big toilet. We should have known since he's all about equal rights and always wants what we have.

Sorry for those of you who don't have kids....I never thought I would be so excited about somebody going to the bathroom until becoming a parent!

Here's a pic of Nathan with my parents from Father's Day:

Our kids going to the potty is such an exciting event. Nathan will be peeing and pooping in the potty in no time.

Of all the things I'm not looking forward to, potty training has to be pretty close to the top of the list. *shiver*

Dan gave him a magazine to read? Ha ha, for some reason I'm imagining Nathan sitting on the toilet reading an editorial in Time.
