Lucas will go potty!
We haven't spend too much time on potty training.  He randomly went pee-pee in April, right after starting school.  I had the potty sitting in the hallway to give away and he sat down on it and went.  I thought that he had seen someone at school do it and that he'd start to show interest, but he hasn't really since then.  He'll sit on the toilet for a few minutes while we sing a song, but no results. 
I've seen two friends in the past week that have used candy as incentive to go potty, so I thought we'd try it since the kid is a fan of sugar.  Last night after dinner I told him that if he would sit on the potty that I'd give him two M&Ms.  He was all for it.  So he settled in and we sang a couple of songs.  I then asked him to try and go potty.  His face got red as he tried, then his face lit up into a huge smile and he said, "I did it!" 
It was the tiniest little poop ever, but it counted.  I told him to go tell Dada and he ran through the house screaming, "I did it!  I did it!"  He even called me-maw and pe-paw to tell them about it. 
I bet the novelty will wear off quickly, but it was fun to see him so excited.
