My son will be 3 next week, OP I feel your pain. I'm pretty sure at this point it's a matter of will for him, and I do think they sense when things are important to us, so while I try to give him opportunities and incentives, I act as if I'm disinterested, which, you know, is really hard . Of course if he does do something in the potty it's a party! We made huge progress in the last 48 hours when I bought him a toy he had wanted for a while at Target over the weekend. He told everyone we encountered there and at TJ's afterwards that he gets to take it out of the box when he doesn't wear diapers anymore. Sorry for interrupting your shopping trip with TMI folks. And then he was mostly dry at daycare yesterday. So maybe we have turned a corner, it's definitely in his court at this point.
