The joys of potty training

OH how soon you forget the joys of potty training. I forgot how much fun it was. I am not actually ready to train Aidan, but he seems to want to do it himself. Last night, he told me he had to go poop, so in the middle of making dinner, I went to the dreaded throne. He sat there for less than a minute and "PLOP PLOP". He did it!! He was so excited and so was mommy, but what the rest of the evening entailed is not much to be desired. I battled with him all night long to give up what he thought was the urge to pee and put on a diaper. It was quite the fight. Finally, I nailed him down, put on a diaper, put pj's on him and off he went to bed. So, first thing this morning out of his mouth is "POTTY MOMMY, POTTY MOMMY". So, all I have done all morning long is sit in front of the throne and he has yet to go.....remind you he has been up for over 4 hours now. UGH!!! Well, we are about to leave to go out for the day and he is wearing a diaper....he just doesn't know it. Mommy is in charge and I so don't think he is ready. He is certainly understanding what potty is, but I think he is still a ways away. I am going to get serious about it in August when he is out of school. Well, for now, keep me in your thoughts as I venture out for the day with a very strong willed 2 1/2 year old.
