Potty potty.

We are currently trying to potty train our youngest. As he is nearly three we think it is about time that he stopped using nappies - and besides they cost lots of money (even the cheap nasty one we use). The first hurdle was getting him to wear pants. He was not very keen on this at all. He would take them off, hide them and then demand to have a nappy put on. But now, after much encouragement from his mother (my beautiful wife), he will now wear pants. The next step is actually getting him to wee. He will not do it. He doesn't perform any bodily functions at all all day until it is nap time and we put a nappy on. He then lets it all out - pushing the capacity of the nappy to it's limit. Or again at bath time. Our eldest has, not surprisingly, started to demand to have the bath water first because of this.

Here's hoping that more encouragement will help him with this next step to adulthood.
