Lil Captain Underpants


I am nervously typing as my toddler sits on the couch... in his undies.
Brand new ultimate undies, that is.


Finally this lazy mama has decided that with a third birthday looming close, I'd better get up off my nappy-lovin behind and potty-train my boy.


I was kind-of given a push by my lovely and clever friend Meg C., who is the creator of ultimate undies. She has offered me some of her toilet-training undies to try, so I can share with you all about her clever invention. Cute cotton undies, with an absorbant liner. Kind of like pull-ups but better. And cuter. And more eco-friendly.

Meg also has a website she is putting together called The Toilet Stop {still under construction - lots more material to come}. The Toilet Stop  is full of ideas and tips for toilet training. Thanks Meg! I'm sure I'll be visiting your website a lot over the next few weeks!

...
Oooh! I am back! Guess where I've been?
My little Captain Underpants just shouted: "Mummy I need a weeweeeeeee!!"
So off we ran to the loo.


He sat on the throne and then closed the door on me.
"Mummy you not take a picture!" he said.


Oops sorry, darlin'. The blogger in me got a bit carried away.


And guess what? He finally did a wee!!
On our third try of the day  {first two tries completely without any wee-action} followed by one pair of wet Buzz Lightyear undies soaking in the bucket.

But now, one pair of too-cute ultimate undies giving me piece of mind while he watches a bit of Dora.


So I guess it has begun. The process of unbaby-fying my very last toddler.
I'll keep you posted on how we go, and how the Ultimate Undies work out.


Wish me luck!

P.S. Just back from checking on Scrag's progress. Boo, he did a wee in his Ultimate Undies. This is gonna take some time. But YAY the Ultimate Undies  worked superb!  Nothing leaked through to the couch at all. Brilliant.

  6. Oh, what perfect timing! I'm thinking that my youngest will be training this spring or summer (hopefully not both!). These undies are adorable! How much does she charge?

    Good luck with the potty training... looks like he's off to a great start.
    BTW, made the chicken for dinner last week... YUM!!
