could potty training be on the horizon?

so i might be jumping the gun a little but i am really hoping that manning is going to take after madelyn and maddux and potty train at two years, one month. over the past few weeks he has started to go over to the toilet and stand like the boys. he does this fully dressed and just leans on the toilet with his stomach.  but last night he removed his pants and diaper on his own (a first) and tried to stand at their toilet (i took a few pictures because it was so funny but won't share them here).

he then refused to put a diaper back on and tried to return the training potty when i got it out for him - since he was so intent on being at the toilet (which he also refused to sit on - he only sees boys standing, right?). it was pretty funny to see this naked boy carrying the training potty all over the house, crying trying to figure out where he should put it so that it would be removed from him.

i am really, really hoping to be rid of diapers (and strollers) this summer! love.
