We went PEE-PEE in the POTTY!!!

Give this lil man a round of applause....He went pee-pee in the potty!!
Im so proud of you hon!
Dalten been wanting to use the toilet since he turned 1, but if you was around him alot you know he was way too short to even reach it with a step stool....but he would pull his diaper off and pee by it.
Well that also lead to bigger messes as he would pull his diaper all the time even when he poop...so it was nasty mess to clean up all the time and it was during the time i was working too....but i think i was just too lazy to really help him out...So i decided when we got back for our trip i would buy him a potty chair (which non of the other kids would use one). So we played with it for a week, showed him it was there...and yesterday Bryan and I decided to buy his own underware...So when he first woke up this morning i took him in there, he set on there and to help him out i turned on the sink and what you know...he did it!!! Your becoming mommy's big boy now!...i just want to cry...here some pics as he was showing off his underware!!

So as most of you know we headed to South Dakota for our family vacation this year....and all i can say is it was AMAZING! We all had a wonderful time...matter fact Colten didnt want to come home! We went everywhere from A to Z and still didn't hit all the spot we wanted to go. We did however made up there during Sturgis time, it was a awesome to see all the people and the bikes...the boy's just love it. While we was head up there my camera decided to take a crap on me so the some place we went to the first day i didnt get pics...but when i got my new camera i took about 400....so these are just some...lol
