This is Little Man's "I'm mad" pose.
We've tried the SuperHero big boy underpants, stickers, a potty train poster, M&M's and the musical potty (picture of Little Man's throne below) but nothing is working. The other day Little Man said he wanted to wear big boy underwear like Daddy. So, we put on some Spider-Man undies with the hope of potty training success and wound up with 5 pairs of urine soaked underwear before lunch. {{{sigh}}}
Trying to convince a stubborn two year old in the middle of The Terribles that he needs to learn to use the potty is like trying to convince the Tasmanian Devil to take up Yoga and become a vegetarian!
The twos really didn't hit until two and a half....but then WOW! When he's in a mood, look out! It's not all tantrums...he gets stubborn too. When he wants something, he won't take no for an answer and is VERY persistent. Gotta give him credit there.
We've decided that Spring Break is going to be Potty Training Marathon Week. I got some great advice from a friend who got her advice from someone who potty trained 3 boys...so hopefully it will work. Little Man has never been a "by the book" kind of kid so we may have to tweak our methods a little bit to fit him. Will keep you posted! :)

Potty training is not fun! Good luck, and don't feel rushed.
You are lucky that the terrible twos hit so late. PT really brings it out in them.
