potty training

i'm finally trying to be the good mom i know i should be and get this kid using the toilet instead of diapers. i've flirted with the idea for a while (he's been ready a long time) but the moving all around didn't seem to be the best time to get things started. the cutie is being put in undies during awake, day time at home. today right after lunch, i asked him to use the restroom and he said "okay" and then i soon followed him in.
almost instantly he said "i'm done"
to which i said "how about i get a book for us to read- stay there until i get back"
as i'm grabbing the book, i hear "i did it!"
and so i rush to the loo and double check the comment. he said "yes, mom, i think i did. wet stuff came out of my body"
... i love that he is so precious.

we've made phone calls to daddy and grandma and he's gotten three cheers from us all. i'd say we have a foot in the door with this and we're not turning back now.
