After some apparent signs of readiness recently, we decided to make a big push toward potty training this past weekend. Here's how Saturday went:
7:30: put on undies (pair #1)
8:45: made T try to pee before we left to run errands
8:50: peed while standing at the front door watching for Ed to come back from the car; changed into pair #2
9:00: dropped laundry off at laundromat (including the recently peed-in undies and pants)
10:30: While I was feeding Jojo, Ed had Thomas try to go; nothing happened. Ed left to pick up the clean laundry.
10:35: TJ looks at me and says "I made peepee." He turns around, and I see the double whammy. That load in his pants meant that it wasn't only pee... Time for another load of laundry! Changed into pair #3
11:30: I took Thomas into the bathroom to try. No dice. I walked across the hall to the kitchen to heat up lunch. Thomas continued to play in the bathroom.
11:35: "Mommy, peepee on the floor!" Changed into diapers.
The morning's total: 3 pairs of underwear, 1 peepee on the potty, 3 accidents, including 1 mother lode.
Consensus: He's not ready. We're going to wait a couple weeks before trying again.

after three full weeks of having a fully potty trained kid, we've been back in diapers for about the past month or so. seems to be some major power struggles going on with it. and i guess incentives are necessary. we had done away with them and the potty training went down hill. argh!!! i completely gave up for awhile but i guess we should probably start trying again.
