Gabe goes potty for the first time

This morning I put Gabe on his potty, like I did yesterday. I have been doing this a few days, but not expecting anything or trying to pressure (I was still basking in glow stemming from the fact that he was even sitting on it) him. I try to help him get up because he'd been sitting there for about three minutes or so and I thought nothing happened. Well, he really didn't want to get up. So I let him sit there for a few seconds longer.

Well, lo and behold, I look in the pot and there was pee!

I was shocked, because I hadn't expected him to do anything in there for a few months. My goal was just to sit him on there a few times a day, including right after he gets up in the mornings and after a meal, and just get him used to it. When we first got the potty a few weeks ago, he didn't even want to sit on it, period. So I felt he came a long way from that, to actually sitting on it with clothes on, then sitting on it without a diaper.

After the grand event, both Craig and I made a BIG deal about it and Gabe liked that a lot. Of course, I know he is not totally trained but it's definitely progress.
