Night potty training begins

T was so thrilled to go to bed in his pants tonight. He has been asking actually since last November and has been waking up announcing he is dry most mornings but we have been dragging our feet about it considering Christmas, holiday, etc. Anyway better late than never. I just took him to the loo now before I go to sleep myself and there was no fussing; he got up calmly, used the toilet without a word or whine, and went back to bed right back to sleep. I will be keeping my fingers crossed for the morning. I am sure there will be accidents but he is only 2 1/2. Anyway we have a whole cabinet full of pull-ups in case it doesn't work out on this occasion and we need to give him more time to try again.
