Potty Training 101

The time has come and Harlen has no idea what is about to happen to him. My sweet little boy is starting on the potty training train and there is no looking back. I know he is ready, but I am not sure that I am ready. Potty Training means that my baby is becoming a boy. The only thing that stands between me and having a baby vs a boy is that he still sleeps in a crib and uses a pacifier. I am anxious, excited and lost about this whole potty training adventure but one thing that I do know is that I am one lucky mommy to have a daycare teacher that knows that the hell she is doing. She keeps reassuring me that we are doing the right thing, that she will be with me every step of the way and that we will get through it together. Saying that I am blessed is an understatement. I thank my lucky stars, every single time that I drop him off or pick him up, that Harlen gets to spend his days with her (and her mother) and today was no different. I dropped him off with a few extra outfits, 5 pairs of underwear and left knowing that Kim would help me in this crazy thing we call "being a big boy." It is so hard for me to believe that we are at this point, but ready or not....... it is time.

Here are a couple pictures I snapped of Harlen in his new "big boy pants." I don't care what anyone says, seeing a little boy in underwear is one of (if not the most) adorable thing in the world. His chunky thighs and tiny booty is probably one of the most precious things I have ever seen.
