Day 3 of potty training

We had another dry clean night and woke up with great expectations for day 3 of potty training. Ledger had a great morning with no accidents and lots of success. We tempted fate and actually left the house to run two small errands. While we were out at Lowe's Ledger told me three times he needed to pee. Three times we went to the potty just so he could watch it flush automatically and then wash and dry our hands with the hot air dryer. The first two times he did nothing on the potty. The last time I was frustrated and made him sit awhile longer and he finally went pee. Yay! Public restroom visit accomplished!

All day was a success and included another #2 on the potty. Obviously this is a long road and three days does not completely train a toddler to always use the potty correctly and on time. I expect it will take a few more weeks at least to really have everything set in, but I haven't changed a diaper in 3 days, that to me is a terrific start.

We are looking forward to a wonderful potty trained 4th of July. The fireworks may be for celebrating our countries independence, but to me, they will be for Ledger and his wonderful accomplishment!
