Today Tristan decided that he was going to potty train himself...He came and told me this morning "pee". So, I checked his diaper and he was still dry. I took his diaper off and sent him into the bathroom, where, lo and behold, he peed in the potty! Mind you, he's been doing this about once a day for the last few days, but there has been no consistency to it, and he would let me put a diaper back on him...
Today however, it was a different story. He REFUSED to have a diaper on. All it took today was asking him if he needed to go "potty" and he would go into the bathroom and do his business. The only time he used a diaper is when he took a nap. Grace and I have both made over him each time he has been successful, and he gets a kick out of the "bubbles" he creates.
This being my second child, I was in no hurry to get him potty trained because Grace was almost 2 1/2 before she was potty trained, and I keep hearing that boys are more difficult to train and they take longer. So, I am still hesitant to get too excited about all this, but it sure would be nice to not have to change diapers anymore! If we continue with this trend, then the only thing we're going to have to work on is getting him to sit on the potty the right way so he doesn't have to disrobe when we're out somewhere...

Meagan was 20 months when she decided she wanted panties so we trained in about the same fashion! Good luck with the rest of the training.
