Potty Training?

I think it's almost time for the hair-pulling-nerve-wrecking,-patience-trying-rite-of-passage-potty training. The other day I got out of the shower to a bare butt Trio and that is the second time that has happened in a week. The first time he was in his playroom and suddenly he comes running out to me, diaper in hand . So we're almost there.

I'm waiting to get one of those insert ring things that actually goes on the big toilet so he can sit there. We have a stool to help him step up and I will sit with him. I asked a friend who has a four year old son if training toilets were good and she asked "Do you really want to clean it out?" And I thought about it and was like "Uhhh no". I mean isn't that the whole point of potty training? To NOT have to clean crap up anymore if you can help it? I mean of course you'll help them wipe for awhile but thinking of cleaning crap out of a tiny potty as opposed to wiping and flushing? Guess which one wins. Not even close. So we have to wait until we get one of those and I'm gonna start putting him on there about every hour to see how it works out. If he completely freaks out we'll wait awhile. If he doesn't...well hopefully it will work out. I just wanna start it before I get my maybe job so that way if Dad has to put him on the toilet it won't be too traumatic for either one of them.

Plus I will be so glad to not have to buy diapers anymore!!
