umm... potty training?

I just got Alex up from his nap. He's usually wet after his nap, so I went to change his diaper. Well he was dry, so I thought hey may as well try taking him to the potty (Alex loves to sit on the potty and wipe. He thinks it's one of the greatest things ever). I decided to mix things up and have him try standing and going potty like Daddy, so I got him a stool and stood him up there and he actually peed in the potty! I was so amazed! I think he was a little amazed as well.
It probably was a by chance thing, but I do think that it at least helped him realize that he can pee in the toilet.
