november 10th - what separates us from the animals

Alex officially has the soft feel of cotton draped over his privates.  He said goodbye to diapers this morning and hello to the awkward sensation of wedgies and accidental skid marks....sometimes a fart ends up being more than a fart.

We made a potty chart, purchased a bag full of rewards, and pre-washed 8 dozen pairs of Alex-sized man draws.  He had a few accidents throughout day 1 and day 2, but by day 3 he was already asking to go to the potty and no more accidents.  Magical.  Sleeping through the night and, most importantly, always drops his number 2's in the right place.
