Life in 20 minute segments...

Wow! Who knew 20 minutes could go so fast?
While potty training today, we're setting a timer to have Carter at least attempt to potty every 20 minutes or so. It seems as though we just get situated playing a game or something, when beep-beep-beep off goes the timer! I think it's working, though...
He had his first accident at 8am, but went on the potty at 9:15am! Yeah Carter!! :) Since then, we've had a couple of successes and a couple of accidents, but all that is to be expected.
We're following a strategy suggested by a friend and are just thankful he's got a positive attitude and is so excited to be a big boy.
Last night he cracked me up as he tried on his big boy underwear, put his hands in the air, and started to shake his hips while singing "No more diapers for me!"
Hopefully, he's right! We're looking forward to the "pay raise" as Scott puts it. :)
