Elliot's really a big kid now

Elliot got potty trained about a week and a half ago.  I woke up late on a Saturday morning only to have Paul & Elliot announce to me that he was done with diapers and wearing underwear now.  He took to it fast and by day 3 there were no accidents.  The big test was sending him to school the following Tuesday (day 4) in his big boy undies.  He did perfect at school.  Later that day I asked Elliot at some point "Elliot, do you need to go potty?" and his reply was kind of an annoyed "Mom, can you stop saying that all the time?"  I thought about it a second and said "OK".  After all, he was doing great.  So from then on, he's been in charge and doing PERFECT.  I'm so proud of my big boy!  And man it is freeing after 5 1/2 years of having a child in diapers to be done!

We went out to celebrate at the new frozen yogurt place in the hood on Valentine's Day with his brother & best friend, Nona Grace

Elliot loves washing his hands every time he goes.  He has the best manners and etiquette
