in March...we started wearing Pull Ups that month. My mistake, if I had any idea how this was supposed to work I would not have been paying through my nose to only frustrate myself for nearly 6 months knowing that eventually the kid might actually tell me when he's ready.
I have not pushed, in fact I would like them both to be in diapers/pull ups for as long as possible because then I don't have to repeat myself 20 times an hour "Jack? Are you still dry?" "Jack? Do you need to sit on the potty?" "Jack, tell Mommy if you need to tee tee." Or worry on our 45 minute commute if my car is going to smell like pee for the rest of the time I own it.
Usually I am ignored when I question him. This weekend I got a new response, "Don't talk." or "Stop Talking Mommy!"
Hmmmm...do I read this as progress?
The girls at daycare assure me it is. He pleaded to wear "the highway ones" (Cars underpants) today and I let him. And he went through all 3 pairs of extra shorts and Elmo underpants I left at school with him. But I am told that's normal.
Let's hope so.
Duke isn't far behind.
And based on my level of stress with it, I may hire someone to deal with the second round.

Erynn is going through the same thing. She knows exactly what to do but can not seem to get down the part where your body tells you that you need to go and you head for the bathroom. She recognizes it too late. I have not pushed either because I think it will just be more frustrating for all of us. However, I will be really happy when I don't have to spend that money on pullups. Good luck with the boys!
