On Tuesday I was complaining to one of my friends durng a playdate that Max just WOULD NOT give up diapers. That I was sure there was no way he'd be potty trained any time soon and we'd be lucky to have him in underpants by next year when he starts preschool.

By Thursday, Max was potty trained.

I have no idea what happend, but during that playdate Max came to me twice asking to use the potty. He was playing on the slip'n'slide with his friends, wearing a swim suit, I was having this conversation out of easrshot inside the house. And of his own accord he decided to come in and ask to use the potty instead of just letting it go outside (which is what I expected him to do).

We went home and I put him in underpants and he did great. Wednesday I put him in underpants when he woke up and he only had 2 accidents the whole day, and those 2 accidents were when we were away from home. Thursday he had no accidents at all and had stopped even telling me he had to pee, he just went in the bathroom and took care of buisness on his own. We went on a few errands and he stayed dry the whole time.

I'm just completely shocked! He just decided, well, I'm a big boy now, better not wear diapers anymore, and just like that, there's no baby left. This same kid argued with me on Monday with big fat tears running down his cheeks that he NEEDED diapers, he was a LITTLE BOY! Who'd have known just a few days later he'd grow up so fast?

I am super proud of him. I did nothing to facilitate this. It was all him. All I did was give him time to decide on his own that it was time and trust him when he said he didn't need diapers anymore.

GREAT JOB MAXIE!
