Potty Training Phenomenon

LOL! The title cracks me up! The reason for the silly title is as follows. Our little man Samuel turned two in January. A few days later, we were in the living room and he looked at me and Chris and said, "potty". We looked at each other like what did he just say. He then said it again. So I took him to the bathroom and sat him on the potty and he peed! We were blown away! From that point on he has been telling us Big Potty! when he needs to go to the bathroom and he is doing really well considering. He goes pee pee several times a day and tries to go poop but I think that is still a little time coming. Granted, he is only our second child to work on potty training but wow. It was a lot more work with Kathryn. She did great but there was a lot more effort involved. Now, of course he is no where near being completely potty trained, but the fact that he started potty training on his own...go figure!
