Unbelievable!

I believe that Little Bug has a check list of ways to one up our expectations. For example, yesterday during therapy, we were telling therapist A that Little Bug was counting to 7 by himself. She congratulated him by saying, "Little Bug, I'm so excited to hear that you can count to seven!" He answer, "Eight... Nine... Ten..." very casually while playing with his toys.

Of course, that was a small feat compared to his other development. On Saturday, I was giving him a bath and he stood up and said, "Want potty!". He then climbed out of the bath tub and sat on the big potty. He didn't do anything on it, but it was super exciting to see him be interested.

Not to be outdone by himself, on Sunday, he took his diaper off, and asked for the potty again. This time, he used it. He peed in the potty! We were so excited for him.

Now, not to say that he is anywhere close to potty trained- he very much is about doing this on his terms- but this is a really exciting development. We haven't been offering or even thinking about it, so for him to suddenly be interested in it is amazing.

Wish us luck and dryness! ;)
