Yesterday, Gabe did something brand new as far as using the potty goes. He has been potty trained since about July, and he has really mastered going alone (getting on his stool, sitting or standing, flushing, wiping, etc)in the last month or so. Anyway, last night he went to use the potty, and I followed behind to see how he was doing. He was standing right up to the toilet without using his stool! It looked hilarious-this little boy standing in front of that big toilet. But amazingly, he is the perfect height, and there were no major messes to clean up. So now he really is a big boy, and he told me he no longer needs his "baby" stool.
On a side note, this only further confirms the fact that he has had a major growth spurt recently. Between his pants not fitting in length anymore and this new way of peeing in the toilet, I would say he has probably grown another inch or so.
I knew he looked a lot taller. He is growing up so fast.
ReplyDeletewow! kendal is TERRIFIED of the potty. well, not when we use it, just when i try to get him to use it.
ReplyDeletei guess this spring we're gonna have to move outside for a week and go diaperless until he figures it out.
Good for Gabe! Josh is 4 and still sits... I guess that is what happens when your dad has been deployed most of your life :-( I can't really teach the whole standing to pee thing. He does like to pee into the drain in the shower (TMI?) so I feel like it will come soon enough.
