Potty Trained??

I loathe potty training. I think it's gross. Toilets are gross. "Potty Chairs" are even grosser. Diapers don't bother me at all... I'd much rather change a diaper than go through potty training with all the accidents and such. So I like to avoid such things until absolutely necessary. I didn't even start thinking about potty training Brodey until after he had turned three... and only then because of all the peer pressure from my friends! He wasn't so bad... a few accidents, a few poopy underwears (which I threw away... no way I was cleaning that out), all together took about a week before I would take him out of the house in underwear and not worry about an accident.
Brock came to me Monday morning with a pair of Brodey's underwear wanting to wear them. I let him, only because I figured it would make me a bad parent if I discouraged potty training, but was already thinking about the puddle I would be cleaning up before 10am. Much to my surprise he went all day with only one (very small) accident! And that happened while he was washing his hands in the bathroom... warm water on the hands equals peeps in the pants. He even stayed dry during his nap!
Tuesday morning he woke up dry and used the potty all day... no accidents.
Wednesday morning: dry. No accidents.
Today: dry. No accidents so far.
Did Brock potty train himself??
I realize we will probably have a few accidents here and there (maybe??), but I think it's safe to say that Brock is officially potty trained! Yay Brock!!

He looks just like Jeff sitting on the pot, while trying to watch the football game with the door open.
