We have now been potty training for several months and I'm happy to say that in the last few weeks we have finally made some progress! It was starting to feel like Jude was never going to figure it out and I was really starting to question if he was ready for potty training after all. But all of a sudden he seems to "get it" and has been telling us he needs to go potty, going on his own and even pooping in the potty! Yay! Of course he is still having the occasional accident, but it seems more to be because he is having fun and doesn't want to stop rather than a lack of awareness. He is also still wearing a diaper for nap and bedtime, which I figure we will phase out once he starts waking up drier or waking up asking to go to the bathroom.
Not much else to report. We are still waiting for the beginning of next year to move forward with baby #2. Jude is a talking machine and has developed a huge love for books, which I love. He is so funny, he loves to make us laugh. And he is just the sweetest little guy. He is also becoming less of a picky eater and eats regular meals at least some of the time now, which is awesome. Oh, nap time is over, that's all for now!
