Potty Training

We've been potty training for almost 2 weeks now. The sitter has declared him trained and sent home all the diapers. We're not quite ready to make that statement at our house. He's doing really well for the most part. He tells us when he has to go and doesn't have too many accidents. He's only gone #2 on the potty one time, the rest of the time it's ended up in his pants. And while he stays dry at nap for the sitter, that's not happening here. He has come a long way though. He started out not wanting to wear big boy pants (underwear), but just the other morning the first thing he said to me was that he wanted to wear big boy pants. One day early on in the training he had a big accident in the kitchen (more like a small flood), and he says to me in a sad voice "I don't want to wear big boy pants mommy." He started out on the little potty chair and within a few days only wanted to sit on the real toilet. He's still scared of public restrooms and often won't even go inside, but yesterday at a car dealership he went for the first time. We only had to go into the bathroom 5 times before he was comfortable enough to go. I'm not really sure how to make him not be scared, so right now when we know we're going to be out for a while we put a pull up on him just in case. But we are very proud of our big boy!
