Fast forward to last week (week of February 26, 2018), James' teacher told me that he had been using the potty all day every day, even asking to go potty. She said he seems ready for underwear and to start the process. This was a total shock to me, and admittedly I was a little hesitant. I took Thursday night to ponder it and then talked to his teachers again on Friday to which they replied, "Bring him in underwear on Monday, we've got this!". So, we did just that.
Saturday morning James and I had a "Mommy/James date" to Target to get more underwear. After much coaxing to stay away from the pink/flowery Elmo underwear, he settled on Thomas the Train and Lion King. :) He was sooo excited! We trial the underwear a little on Sunday afternoon with no success, but he was still excited to try the underwear.
Come Monday, we sent him to school in Thomas underwear per his request. When I picked him up the teacher said he did great the whole day, only having a tiny accident right as I was picking him up (only requiring an underwear change, pants were ok!). We were soooo proud of him and he was so excited!
On Tuesday, I picked him up from the gym. His teacher said he might need to potty before we head home, so we made a pit stop by his classroom for a bathroom break. HE sat for a few minute and then finally peed. Upon inspecting for any "dribbles" he told me, "Look mommy, there's pee pee on my tail (aka- penis)!" John did share the other night that he had been referring to his penis as his "tail". Oh boy, the potty humor is just beginning...

Thus the life of a boy mom. :) Keep up the good work, James! We are so proud of you!
