Potty Day!

Today we're potty training! I really wasn't planning on potty training Duncan so soon, but he had started telling me when he had pooped and then twice he told me he needed to go, so we ran and he pooped in the toilet. After researching it all month I decided that maybe he was ready so we got some new undies and decided today would be the day. It's going pretty well so far. This morning he peed in the toilet twice and didn't have his first accident until noon. Then he peed again in the toilet and then had another accident...... it's amazing how much he was holding in there. I just laid him down for a nap at about 1 and we'll see how he does this afternoon, but I'm hopeful! I'm also really exhausted.... but it's fun to watch Duncan be so excited about this.

It's exciting!

...And exhausting...

I was trying to keep him entertained in the kitchen "just in case," and it's a good thing, because soon after this picture he had his first accident of the day.  At least it wasn't on the carpet...yet...

Zoo Trip

I'm sure a lot of you have seen this picture, but it's a cute one of Duncan and I, and I don't get in on a lot of pictures with him (usually I'm the one taking the pictures...).  Anyway, I thought this one deserved documenting.  

This time at the zoo, Duncan really got into seeing the animals!  He wanted to get out of his stroller at every animal exhibit, and he would sneak in the front of all the other kids to see them and point at them.  It was pretty adorable.  He especially wanted to see the elephants this time and kept making elephant sounds on our way to the zoo.

We rode the carousel for the first time, and I'm really glad we did.  He was so excited to see it and get on it, but when it started moving he was a little freaked out....I had to tell him that it was fun (lol) and started cheering, and eventually he chimed in with a weak little cheer too while we were going around.
