Sort of unintentionally, we seem to have nearly potty trained Bennett! I've been off and on asking him if he wants to try undies for months now, and he has pretty uniformly said "no," but Friday morning, he said "yes." And so it began. He's been only in undies (pull-ups for nighttime) ever since, and today was his first accident-free day - we're pretty impressed, especially since we've been out-and-about quite a bit - breakfast at the railroad diner, a long walk to the beach, dinner at Gritty's. He hasn't wanted to go in a public bathroom, understandably, but he's held it until we get home. The pride Bennett has shown after successfully using the potty is unforgettable and totally awesome. The jelly bean bribes don't hurt either, but it has clearly been the sense of self-accomplishment that's driving this train.
(By the way, that photo is of Bennett making his "brontosaurus face" - just like the brontosaurus in his dinosaur puzzle?!?!?)
