Woohoo! It finally happened a week ago! Benjamin is no longer in diapers!! And yes, anyone who wants to, can say "I told you so". Heck, I even told myself so! I persuaded my stubborn son into the pullups by running out of diapers (he happened to be there when I bought the last box that was on the shelf, so that became the last box of diapers - ever). I had him do a count down each time we needed more from the closet. It worked, and when they were all gone, getting into the pullups was a no-brainer for him. Plus the fact that he watched one of his little friends pee standing up - once he saw someone other than daddy doing it that way, the rest was history! And he's doing such a good job going to the bathroom - sometimes he even insists on "privacy, please, mommy" and I have to close the door - I know the transition into underwear when the package of pullups runs out should be a breeze since I'm going to use the same tactic I did with the diapers. Why not - it worked! Yay!
Thanks to daddy for helping me along in my journey from toilet hell to potty heaven!
Hmmmmm.........what are the odds that the extra grey hairs that appeared during this trying time will disappear?

Although Rowan could still be teasing me for another 12 months if he follows in his brother's footsteps!
He has some new Transformer undies... so far no inspiration.
