calvary versus the potty part 2...

it started this afternoon with diaper rash.
i decided that we would start our crash course on cold turkey diapering today. his bottom was sore and he did not like having anything done to remedy his problem. so i convinced him that having underwear on instead of a diaper would help him. he decided that he would lose the diaper and garner these new duds instead...
the first accident happened about 2.5 hours after nap...he came lurking out from behind my closet door and admitted, as if he could hide what had occured, that he had peed. little did we know that his drawers hid another secret for us...
kyle went off to the bathroom to change his pants and as he did calvary stepped on the underwear smushing said surprise into the fabric of his big boy pants. at this point kyle was too grossed out and i had to take over by swishing the soiled pants into the toilet like a 17th century scullery maid.
not to be defeated this soon in the game, we put on another pair of underwear on calvary.
the second accident occured about 1.5 hours after the first while i was putting oliver jack to bed.
harper took care of that one. i'm still not quite sure where the accident took place and harper informed me that she put the soiled underwear in the washing machine....which had clean clothes in it....it is so nice to have a helping hand...


there's no going back now. surely he has to sit on the potty sooner or later, right? he likes the underwear. he knows when he's going. he can pull his pants up and down. all signs point to yes.

if we're keeping score: CALVARY 2 POTTY 0
