We moved, again. But this time for a great new change in our lives. We moved in with my boyfriend, Chris, in Norman. It's been a month-and-a-half and things are great. Ronan took the change quite well and is really comfortable with the new living situation. Chris and I are even closer and more in love. We certainly won't stay in this tiny apartment forever - maybe not even for the full lease - but it's a good start. I'm still looking for full-time work but I think that problem is finally solved. All in all, life is great.
Ronan unfortunately has lost any interest in the potty or even letting me know he needs a new diaper, but his awesome new daycare let me know that most of the boys there are in their late 2's to early 3's before they start really training. That's definitely a reliever.

Success! And a new road trip.
Ronan made his first pee-pee in the potty this morning! He had a dirty diaper and went to the bathroom and wanted to sit on the potty. He very patiently wanted to keep sitting, and we read a couple of books, one about the potty. I left the room for a moment and when I returned it had happened! He was still sitting there, looking down into the potty, like he thought something had happened but wasn't sure. So I told him, hugged him, high-fived him, then we emptied the potty together and he put on his super soft, reusable training pants for an official start. He got a special sticker to put on the wall behind his potty. I'm so excited, and proud. I know it will be a somewhat trying and difficult time for both of us, but I'm just glad he's getting to know what's going on at last.

It has officially commenced!
Since he doesn't seem to mind being wet, we've gone straight to underwear. Through three pair so far today...but if it helps him become aware of when it happens, so be it. And as of the moment he's vetoing the underwear altogether, but is now even more aware of when the accidents happen. Still hasn't used the potty, but he needs to recognize his body's signals first. Sigh. Bring out the washcloths.
