the adventures of potty training

So we are officially in the potty training stage with Wyatt.  We have tried to get him in this stage several times before with no luck.  This time he started it all by himself.  He came up to me in the bedroom on Saturday morning and said "mommy I go potty'' and proceeded to take his diaper off, climb up onto the toilet and go pee.  I was so ecstatic I nearly peed my pants.  I discovered some leftover candy in my purse and gave him a piece and told him that everyone time he went potty in the big boy potty he would get another piece.
We have been working with him for over a week now.  He isn't completely potty trained yet, but we are slowly on our way.  Shane was brave enough to take him out in public in his big boy underwear, which was followed by an accident which was to be expected.  Whenever he gets distracted or he is too busy playing to remember that he needs to go potty, he has an accident.  So for now, he has been wearing pull-ups, and I have been trying to remind him every hour to go try to sit on the potty.  I'm just so excited for the day when I no longer have to change his diapers!!
