Potty Training Triumphs & Troubles

So I think this picture pretty much sums up our potty training experience.........big boy underwear work better on Bryson's head (for now)!  I know Bryson isn't even 2 1/2 yet, but lately he had been talking about the potty chair and wanting to "go potty".  So I talked with his teachers at school and we figured why not give it a try since he was expressing interest.  We went directly to big boy underwear and for the first 3 days he was doing awesome!  Then all of the sudden wanted NOTHING to do with going to the potty chair (or even the bathroom).  So he would hold his potty for hours and dance like an indian around the house.  Then he got so uncomfortable holding it that he started to cry :(  I tried everything to get him to go (I even told him to go on the carpet!)  So then I stared to cry because I felt so bad for him and I remember thinking as we were both in tears, "I don't think this is how potty training is supposed to go".  So after Dan got home I went on a walk with Wylie and on the walk I got over my thoughts of me being a Bad Mommy and decided to put a HOLD on potty training for a while (maybe a LONG while).
When I dropped off Bryson at school the next day and told his teachers about the traumatic experiences (this happen more than once).  I must have been a little emotional because when I picked him up from school I had a Dove Chocolate bar and card waiting for me in his cubby.  I need to mention how much we LOVE Primrose and all the staff there.  They are so awesome and care for Bryson like he is their own (apparently parents too)! We feel so fortunate to have found such an amazing place for our little man.
So, to close the potty training session for now my advise would be.......Just because your child talks about the potty doesn't mean they are ready, and dancing around like an indian while crying is NOT a part of successful potty training :)
Other than that experience, we did get to go down to Mason City for an early Easter with Grandma Carol, Grandpa Klocke, Uncle Ben, and Aunt Lindsey (pictures below).  Bryson had a ton of fun coloring Easter eggs and going on a Easter egg hunt!  We also got the chance to Skype Uncle Josh and talked alot about how Josh was in Texas.  The next morning we asked Bryson "where is Uncle Josh?"  He thought about it for a second and replied "In the computer!"  It was adorable!
As far as "Little Mister" goes (that is what we are calling Baby #2), I am now 25 weeks and feeling great.  He is VERY active little guy.  July will be here before we know it, so we are getting Bryson ready to move into his Big Boy room complete with Big Boy bed.  Then I will start to get the nursery ready :)  We also have tried to explain to Bryson that he is going to have a "Little Brother" and that he is in Mommy's belly.  He usually just looks at us and starts singing his ABC's, so in other words he is REALLY into it!  Too funny!
I hope this post finds everyone well and Happy Easter!  He is RISEN indeed!
