Since Spencer has been using the potty two to three times a day lately, we decided to see whether he had any interest in wearing underwear this weekend. Turns out he does. He's been wearing them all day. Spencer even sits on the big potty most of the time although on occasion he continues to use his little, kid-sized potty or a potty lid on the larger potty. Of course, there has been an accident or two but that's to be expected in the beginning. Could it be that we are finally turning a corner? Dare I say that Spencer is potty trained? I thought this day was a long way off yet but children have a way of surprising you.
Something else that surprised me today was Spencer pretending to be a baby. He's been asking to be held, rocked and put in the "bassinet." He reminds us to support his head when we pick him up, all things we have said to him as we play along. It's funny that Spencer choses to be a baby at the same time that he is taking a big developmental leap forward in terms of potty training. Spencer may have been inspired by a library book we have been reading the last couple of days about all the things that babies do. Coincidence?
