Well, Dylan has actually been doing pretty well with the potty. He seems to be better able to make it to the potty before he does his business (usually pee pee) and, at times, he is now getting super duper upset whenever even one tiny drop of urine hits his diaper.
His sensitivity to the moisture in his diaper has gotten to the point where Tom and I decided to just use disposables at night to keep him from waking up at 3am. This strategy has worked and he’s now sleeping through the night, but now we’ve run into the growing problem of Dylan not wanting to get back into a diaper. So, he gets a choice: sit on the potty or get back into a diaper and get on with other things.
Resourceful fellow that he is, Dylan has discovered he can kind of do both — thanks to the wonders of newly acquired (via the holidays) remote control vehicles. He sits on his potty for minutes and minutes and minutes and makes his cars go (he has two of them), claiming all the while that more is coming. He does in fact pee within a few minutes of first sitting down, but these cars keep things interesting enough for him to delay getting a new diaper so he can move on to playing!
