Everyone else is doing it. Oh, the pressure to blog ...

But do you really want to read about the highs and lows of potty training? Because that's all I got for you. It's actually going very well. Definitely not an overnight thing but I do think we'll meet the goal of being trained by the time school starts.

Though, I don't suggest lollipops as a potty bribe. Two-year-olds can make one lollipop last for hours. This afternoon, he actually potty-ed, got his lollipop and then about thirty minutes later went back to the potty. Afterwards he said, "I need lollipop." Then looked at me, looked at his hand, looked back at me with a look of awe and said, "I've already got a lollipop!"

Another Will moment: The other day he spied my toes (naked in my favorite flops) and started "This Little Piggy" but instead of going to the market, my toes had a different to-do list. "This little piggy went to Wal-Mart. This little piggy went to grocery store."

The great thing about being around a 2-year-old is that you can't make this stuff up. It's just too good.
