Growing up is hard to do (especially for Mommy)

My Maddie is growing up. She went potty three times yesterday and once this morning and went most of last evening with no diaper. I have not wanted to potty train her for three reasons.

1. Diapers are easy and I'm lazy

2. She hasn't seemed at ALL ready. She wants to sit on the potty only because that'll make her able to flush the potty.

3. Being potty trained means she's growing up!!!


She could barely fill out Riley's most teeny pair of panties (Nemo ones), which is awfully strange since her around-the-house nickname has been Juicy Booty for so long. She had a bubbly little booty for the longest time, but she seems to have walked it all off.



She is also nearly ready to switch over to a "big bed" on a full-time basis. She has a crib and a twin bed in her room and she does really well with the twin. But she LOVES her crib, so it being right there makes her want to be in it. Every night we ask her which bed she wants to sleep in and she answers either "Big" or "Baby." I was trying to wait until we settled back down with Daddy being home to take the crib out, so I think Wednesday is the day. I'm a little scared at her reaction...she doesn't do well with change.


*****Sidenote. A big YAY to Christina for finding your keys!!!
