Joseph used the potty for the first time this evening. He’s been curious about the whole process for the last couple weeks, so we got the trainer potty down from the attic over the weekend. Generally speaking, he sits on it for a few seconds and then loses interest, but this time, something actually happened. I’m not sure who was more surprised, Joseph or Mommy.

It may have been just a fluke—he’s quite a bit younger than Julia was when she started potty training—but I figure it’s worth getting this up on the Internet now so that he can find it online when he’s doing vanity searches on his name a few years hence.
